Some interesting finds...

There already was bad blood between those two drivers who had been at loggerheads with each other (since the night they fought over the same native Chinese karaoke hostess) and on the day of the 'clash' in question, one was returning to base, the other was moving out and when they saw each other, all hell broke loose and they charged at each other like armored knights - they were wrapped in steel-plated Volvos afterall, weren't they? - in some medieval contest ...?Originally posted by Zilchster:yet another accident involving SBS Transit buses today...
SBS 558J of Svc 73 and SBS 2788Z of Svc 105 met with an accident today at braddell rd i tink
Anyhow, what's with this obsession about bus service numbers and vehicle numbers? Predictions or numbers' forecast in impending lottery draws?
Just like motorists slowing down on expressways to gawk at twisted wrecks in accidents, taking down vehicle numbers like these were some kind of godsend? 
Interestingly, anybody has statistics on further accidents happening because of motorists decelerating to view others' plights & mishaps?

Monday 06/10/2003 SBS 3761T on Sv. 55 SBS 3906T on Sv. 56 Unidentified Sv. 156 B10M Alexander-bodied Mk II parked outside MOELC at Bishan St 14. There will always be a Sv. 156 bus parked there every few days, be it a Mk II, III or IV. Wonder why.
Tuesday 07/10/2003 TIBS WTxx turning into Bishan St 14 from Bishan Rd at 7am, O405 has an Emtec ad, from AMKDEP. Anyone knows the rego? This TIBS WT service is much like our dear EB88 I think. SBS 9194R of Sv. 88 having a bad engine day. Engine gives out funny noises, seems to be dying soon. -

There is no EB88 now......I saw the Lynx having the plastic desto "employee bus".By the way,it seems kinda low-floor but too bad it is not.

From some old photos of buses, I have found out that the Leyland Lynx has actually served Service 269 before. But it was a very long while back then, when the new temporary Ang Mo Kio Bus interchange hadn't been built. I'm not even sure if the SBST MB 405 (Non-A/c) at the time, had been inauragated into the SBST Main fleet.
