Yellow. Didn't manage to take a picture of it as it was at night. It was operating on IKEA shuttle (Bedok) yesterday. Will look for it again.

I dont recall KJDEP to Boon Lay using that route that 172 would use but it is possible aside from using Jalan Bahar PIE,KJE, Woodlands Road route.
Normally i will see OFF SVC buses going to boon lay int (WLDEP/WLBP or KJDEP) going on PIE and exit on Jalan Bahar...after which they will either use Jurong West Central 1 > St 64 or Jurong West Ave 4 > St 64.. -
SMRT buses now have BC's name at the standee area..spotted them on most buses there few days...today 560H on 307AP04, PM shift driven by Wang Wang..haha!

SBS8112J doesnt have the rear sensor sound

Weird deployment for CCBP today as mentioned in the Cameo thread...
Boarded SMB57Y on 307S201 at around 8am this morning and then i boarded TIB738M (172AM06) towards Boon Lay. Normally 172AM06 will leave int at around 8.22am but it left at 8.15am, which is supposed to be the departure time for 172S106. Bus was quite packed, and TIB715D (172S106) caught up from behind and overtook TIB738M at "Before Jalan Bahar" stop...
Later at night, i spotted SMB57Y on 172PM06 at Blk 263 stop towards Boon Lay Int at around 1915hrs. 5 mins later, TIB738M reached that stop, and its a split shift slot...whereas TIB715D was no longer on 172S106 during PM peak, but was on 172S107...

So far for 89..Dennis Trident...it's the first time seeing this as the destination. And mostly, the driver would display Hougang Central for the entire journey.

SMB141L got back its rimguards.
-
SBS6001J (CGBP 28): Strange and obvious rambling noise inside the bus when moving.

SBS8319E (BNDEP SP) - interior with different lights...
SBS8670P (BNDEP 36) - unique gearshift! 'DOOR CLOSING' chime spoilt... Seats have these stickers at the back:
SBS8736J (BRBP 131) - rear interior floor vibrates when idling... Rear row left seat:
TIB586J (KJDEP 188/188R) - very strong aircon!
Suspect no speed limiter, bus can speed very quickly! All interior ads removed, except this one (TIB788T style... ):
TIB887R (KJDEP 300) - one of the nicer Box bendies! All door panels have MAN aircon vents at the top:
Also, this is the rear trailer left card reader:
-
During AM peak, CCBP did not deploy any bus on 307S201 as there was not enough drivers so the behind bus (307S101) left int 1 min before schedule for the 0748hrs trip.
For 172, SMB58U (172PM07) also got rescheduled. Original timing was:
Depart CCK: 1516hrs
Arr BL: 1559hrs
Depart BL: 1601hrsNow was:
Depart CCK: 1522hrs
Arr BL: 1605hrs
Depart BL: 1607hrsMorning also 172AM05 (TIB551J) left int only at 0817hrs instead of the usual 0808hrs. Suspected 172S106 no bus...

*RapidKL buses getting interior rego plates…
SBS1969A (CGBP 81) – ‘BUS STOPPING’ chime very unique (older), has this chime: “Ding Dong, um-uh”… Nice Strider!
SBS2808A (ARBP 195) – very nice Voith!
SBS2816B (ARBP 57) – rear door with “NO STANDING ON STEPS” sticker… Very nice Voith!
SBS6724G (HGDEP 27) – middle panels (rear door and standee area) creaking when going over humps…
SBS7477M (HGDEP 51) – ‘DOOR CLOSING’ chime deeper than usual, actually very nice!
SBS8162P (AMDEP 53) – front doors like SBS8164P, open and close like Masats doors (no swinging at all)… Also with the black screws at the rear like SBS8164J, but only on the right… Only KUB with extra aircon vents on the aircon ducts (towards the rear, behind the exit door)!
SBS8713A (BRBP 124) – one the few KUBs without loud radiators!
SBS8788J (BRBP 145) – rear row right most seat got this aircon vent!
SMB105S (KJDEP 172) – bus cui, interior quite dirty… ‘DOOR CLOSING’ chime spoilt…
SMB232H (WLBP 75) – engine cover at the last row of seats not close properly, letting hot air from the engine to rise into the interior, thus making the rear warm!
SMB273P (WLBP 75) – nice engine! Emergency door knob sticker cleverly placed on top of the speaker!
SMB1323Y (KJDEP 868/SP) – inerior still has SDIC ads on aircon ducts… Aircon cui…
SMB1345J (WLBP 75) – very whiny engine!
