Some interesting finds...
-
Service 87 is now under control of Hougang Depot. It is not surprising to see 9400X on service 87.
-
Which means there is the possibility of SBS9888Y or even the Tridents operating on Service 87, am I right to say that?Originally posted by off_service:Service 87 is now under control of Hougang Depot. It is not surprising to see 9400X on service 87.

Yes, chances of tridents and 9888 going to 9 , 7 and 87 in bedok area is pretty high . Keeping my finger cross .

I'm not too sure but 9400X could have been a recent "casualty", being transferred to BNDEP from HGDEP.Originally posted by off_service:Service 87 is now under control of Hougang Depot. It is not surprising to see 9400X on service 87. -
Yesterday's findings:
SBS 881A on Sv. 31, unrefurbished. SBS 9661J on Sv. 10 TIB 1199L on Sv. 969 CAC N113CRB on Sv. 68 -
SBS9661J is a permanent bus on Service 10. Does 881A has the SBST frost on the windscreen? If there is, then there could be at least 3 unrefurbished MK3 at BNDEP.Originally posted by SBS9818A:Yesterday's findings: SBS 881A on Sv. 31, unrefurbished.

TIB1199L is somewhat a mysterious bus. Although it often appears on svc 851, it had recently been "perm" on svc 969 for most of the week, and had made a cameo on svc 806 carrying svc 969 svc guides instead of svc 851 svc guidesOriginally posted by SBS9818A:Yesterday's findings: SBS 881A on Sv. 31, unrefurbished.

TIB1199L is supposed to be a perm 854 bus... although it does appears regularly on 969 and much less so on 851. On days when TIB1205C is not around on 969, 1199L takes its place. TIB1205C and TIB1199L regularly swap places between 969 and 854.Originally posted by TIB1186Z:TIB1199L is somewhat a mysterious bus.

Two weeks ago it was on 851 for almost a whole week in place of TIB762S. And that first day I took it, the radiator pipe blew up along Thomson Road and shivered to a stop. I thought it would take at least a few days for repairs, it re-appeared back on 851, exactly the same time, the very next day! -
Think so. I saw SBS 9661J before on Sv. 31.Originally posted by Superbus:SBS9661J is a permanent bus on Service 10. Does 881A has the SBST frost on the windscreen? If there is, then there could be at least 3 unrefurbished MK3 at BNDEP.

Trident on Service 87? -
I don't think they are converting the rest of the remaining non a/c single-deckers. But maybe in the near future, we don't know yet. Even the repainting of the Scanias have slowed.Originally posted by SBS3688Y:I was last in Spore in Jan this yr...

Lucky I did not see it while on the SLE. Anyway, SBS 9530 D was on service 168 yesterday, 14 Sept 2003. -
Transitlink wanted to amend Svc 73, 80, 100, 155 and 641 too.
-
No, better still, leave them in their original configuration, they are much quieter than the CACs.Originally posted by Airbus330Captain:No !! dont convert them , get rid of the scanias please !!! I have enough of them . Scanias and Dennis Lance , no no no .....
I love Scanias, their torque is high enough to take on the hills of Changi and Loyang easily, unlike some obvious buses that will struggle like siao, -
Haha..I was glad I took it though. So what time did you see 9530? I believe the bus replaced 9621 which went "Off Service" around 12.40pm.Originally posted by off_service:WHAT?!

Keep them longer as I'm a sadistic person who likes to see people suffer.Originally posted by Airbus330Captain:No !! dont convert them , get rid of the scanias please !!! I have enough of them . Scanias and Dennis Lance , no no no .....
About 100 of the non-aircon Scania N113CRBs have been converted. -
Sv. 56 as well. My guess was for it to follow Sv. 851 route down North Bridge Rd and similar to Sv. 133, perhaps looping at Suntec City.Originally posted by Zilchster:Transitlink wanted to amend Svc 73, 80, 100, 155 and 641 too. -
At least 2 Hispano 0405s on 806 fleet today! One of them is TIB783G, the other unknown.
Its the transferring of 806s bendys to 804 right? Any news on whether 806 will still be withdrawn? I wont mind if 806 beocmes a full 0405 fleet and have freqs of 5-10mins during peak hours as long as they do not withdraw it!
