At least it's very nice to have it back to bright white! TIB494R, TIB736T, TIB793C and the other buses with the creamy restickered livery all look so terrible...

Bus observation for SV 172 weekdays thus far ever since go BLBP (updated as of 080914):
1. AP buses the timings more or less the same. Few timings i took still took back the same AP bus as when during KJDEP times...maybe at most 2-3 mins difference due to adjusted runtime. Heard runtime was reduced even further during off peak (saw 39 mins from boon lay to cck during late morning). Peak hour think extended runtime by about 1-2mins...
2. Split shift buses was chaos. Was unable to observe much since majority are cameos (see my long list of 172 cameos these few days). Only managed to confirm some slots when i board them, or even recognise BCs for bendy slots...
Observations
(PM peak):
**List is for before AP buses go for dinner break..during dinner break, Split shift buses behind a certain AP bus will depart before it.
714G (01) >> 886T (S105) >> S104 >> 59S (02) >> S101 >> 5Y (03) >> 1050G (S103) >> TIB1085G (S102) >> 6U (04) >> S108 >> 56A (05) >> S106 >> 57Y (06) >> 58U (07) >> 1030P (S107)
(AM peak):
59S (02) >> S104 >> 5Y (03) ... 6U (04) >> S106 >> 56A (05) >> 1030P (S107) >> 57Y (06) >> 1050G (S103) >> 58U (07) >>unknown rigid S slot .... 714G ....
Still missing from picture: 172S101, 172S102, 172S105, 172S108
3. Buses will go back to KJDEP during split breaks, but when ending revenue service, buses will first go to KJDEP, then Bulim for overnight parking.

Terrible waiting time for 333, 105, 52, 502 at IMM Building just now...333 can even have traffic delays when 105/52 doesn't...

Agree. 502 should have more DDs. Surprised to see you had long waiting time at IMM. Normally, frequency pretty good when u combine the services.
