3655S out on Sv 7 today. Not sure which depot it belongs to though. But I guess more likely to East-district depot given how where its other siblings have landed up.
Yes should be BNDEP. BBDEP no need for now. Don't have buses retiring soon. -

SBS3365DIsn't it a joke that they have registered 3 more BSEP WEGs when 4 BSEP WEGs are not deployed for over 3 months.

Relax dude,they got a reason behind this,more or less like SMRT A22s at Wldep when other 2 depots need more buses

LOL

I didn't see that coming - I thought all the 3 new BSEP WEGs will go to SLBP.
-
sgwiki shows that the 3 BSEP WEGs have gone to sv 59, 45 and 196. Is that correct? So 45 has now 3 BSEP WEGs and 196 got 2...
Strange way of adding buses I must say.

Err. not really strange if you consider that apart from their BSEP vs non-BSEP regos, they are still Wrights. Some svcs get non-BSEP Wrights as fleet add instead (eg. Sv 12), which if they are S-shift, are not much different from the timings of BSEP buses.

It's better for AMDEP to have excess capacity rather than a lack of capacity uh~ and those 3 SP BSEP Wrights in AMDEP are practically being used now as normal SP DDs. Any svc needs a DD replacement, AM just use any of those 3 to do.
Ditto for 3355H in BNDEP.
I would like to say though, that AFAIK 3354K is still SP too and not perm BN 17? I have never seen that bus during Peak on Sv 17 for so many months though, but yet i've seen it more often on Sv 12 than elsewhere. And when '2615P' posted 3354K as perm BN 17 months back, there wasn't any e-tt change to support that BSEP fleet add theory. So i think 3354K is still SP instead of BN 17.

Looks like the person was fooling around. Today on sgwiki the bus # are deleted and show blank. -

AMDEP and BNDEP can have additional capacity - not saying no. But it could be with SBST SP buses. Why use BSEP buses for this purpose? Anyway, nothing wrong w/ using BSEP buses also because at the end it is better to have a bus deployed than not.
Just that when BSEP was introduced, didn't expect buses to just run around as and when SBST wants but would be added to specific routes based on loading.

Guess should put 3354K back to SP then. I have never seen it on BN 17 as well. It has been showing this way for the last 3 months. Does anyone have correct information on this?

if u look at it, all the depots are having BSEP buses as spares buses (except SLBP).. just that AMDEP are using 3 Wrights as Spare buses while other depots are using Citaros (except for BNDEP)... there is nothing wrong for LTA/SBST to keep some buses as spares? they are flexible in the deployment, cos for example, if sv50 buses breakdown, what shall it use? go and register another BSEP bus immediately to deploy? no right?
