I hear that the former Somapah Bus Terminal is near somewhere The Max Pavillion and EXPO.

Did you know that some bus enthusiasts called the terminal "Somapah Ter" before it was opened? -

did u know that taking 334 is faster than 49 by 10 mins?
tried that coz i stay at blk 551 bus-stop area
334: 20mins to st 42
49: 30-40mins to st 42 (30 mins provided AYE bus-stop no ppl, 35-40 mins the other way round)like obviously because the difference is 10-12km
It's obvious right given that 49 route is quite winding.
I think the estimate should be st 42 to Lakeside or Jurong East MRT. This is where 49 could provide faster connectivity to MRT compared to 334.

Somapah Bus Ter - present day carpark of Singapore EXPO
(credits : http://remembersingapore.org/2012/10/28/singapore-old-bus-interchanges-terminals/ )
On street directory, the icon of Somapah Bus Ter is exactly the new Changi Business Park Ter.
Likely it's an error?

Did you know 151 is the only SBST DD service without any WEGs?
-
apparently, the red colour on SBS Transit bus livery is Chili red (#E23D28). The purple colour appears to be Spanish violet (#4C2882). The white appears to be Snow (#FFFAFA)
when I analysed the graphic of sbs transit livery found in one of their annual reports, the red is around 215% red, 70% green and 40% blue. the purple is around 95% red, 30% green and 120% blue. the white is around 236% red, 237% green and 237% blue.

U sure? Where is the WEG on 125/139?
-
Service 241 is the first feeder service to have a full aircon DD fleet (around 2014 when the perm citaros were redeployed, please correct me if I'm wrong) and the first feeder service to have a full perm WAB DD fleet (the second being 334 when SBS5001R was redeployed).
Coincidentally, SBS5001R was a perm for both 241 and 334.

Did you know? "SG1965Y" is a fake new account. Seriously, if SGforums does not block email address domains of fake-email generating websites (eg. http://www.fakemailgenerator.com/), people can always create fake email accounts to register fake new accounts ("clones") and write in SGforums, and SGforums will always see fake new accounts appearing. As far as I know, SkyscraperCity forum has banned fake-email domains from registering fake new accounts. Unfortunately, SGforums does not appear to have the ability to ban fake-email domains. You can thank me later, though I ask for no reward. :)

21 was the first WAB- certified service back in 2006, was chosen to be the first due to multiple medical facilities along the route.
147 was a few months after.

The mobile phone application "TrackIDâ„¢ - Music Recognition" by Sony Mobile Communications is very good. Thanks to that app, I found out what are the songs used in TIB1234T's and Shahirwan111's videos. :)

You must have forgotten about the lone feeder service in Bishan...
Technically speaking, 410W and 410G are under the same service number, so hope that it counts in your context!
