  The bus had been extended all the way till its 19 years of lifespan, and it's not possible to extend anymore. What I mean is that it is not de-registered earlier together with the other Leylands awaiting de-registrations.

  Does anyone follow bus deployments closely enough to know what times SBS9168S is scheduled to depart Eunos or Boon Lay on it's normal duty? Coming from the UK and would like to get it one last time. I wish Iris showed vehicle numbers, I'm sure it would on SBS systems but omitted for public info, there are lots of VO3x that I want to ride on but the ones I want are spread out one per route.

  There is a higher chance to get 9168 on weekdays peak hours. I would suggest that you approach the control office at either of the terminating points for its departure times. They would be happy to help you.
