Bus was lambat already due to massive jams at Geylang..even svc 2 start down route from Victoria St towards CV at 0020 -
SBS7523M (SLBP 30) has new door arms, those black ones you find on the Batch 3 Wrights with the knob to release the pressure of the pneumatic system to open the door. Note that while these doors arms are new, the doors are still the same and the doors still use the button to open the doors... It is unknown if the pneumatic door motors were changed, though they are immensely fast and violent!

* SMB29D rear EDS not working... * SMB1372E "OFF SERVICE" with 3/4 full pax along Wlands Rd to WRI @ 12.12PM, believed to have running late on 961... * TIB461K "DOOR CLOSING" sign is still flip... * TIB969M "LAST BUS"... lol...

Seen several SMRT buses approaching WRI "Off Service" despite having passengers inside. Mainly MANs but also one service 960 bendy. I assumed SMRT BCs were instructed to switch the EDS to "Off Service" when they've left the final bus stop to the interchange, but saw this happening only a few times so probably not. The buses I spotted were well within service operating hours. Morning or afternoon. Still a mystery to me...

SBS Transit's new way of identifying buses from depots. Currently only BNDEP/CGBP and AMDEP/BRBP have it. The other depots should follow soon.
BNDEP/CGBP (green dot sticker):
AMDEP/BRBP (yellow dot sticker):
UPDATE:
AMDEP/BRBP buses now with the green dot sticker (same colour previously used by BNDEP/CGBP buses)
BNDEP/CGBP buses now with red dot sticker, not very easy to see...

Could it be to avoid confusion for pax at WRI, when bus enters and pax unload. Some people might think bus has come to board. Since loading/alighting bays are both same direction. Cant think of anything else.
