Originally posted by SBS 9631X:Actually, how would you know which SMRT buses are being prepared to be transferred from SMRT to Tower Transit though? A genuine question though.
Other than a few cross-depot non-BSEP transfers lately involved BB, HG & AM..I think everything is normal still for SBST though from what I see..
But then again, let's not forget that SBST depots also have this tendency to keep quite substantial amounts of their BSEP buses as SPs.. So maybe they didn't have to do what SMRT did ..
And also based on the observation of a high number of BSEP buses leaving their perm services and also a mass transfer of BSEP buses to BUDEP.. in fact, some of these buses are already being deployed on TT services....
Based on past few weeks observation,

Slowly those affected svc esp those smrt ones will throw part of their fleet i.e OC, Citaro to SMRT while the BSEP may stay in TT

Already happening, like 69M, 70H, 71E and 116K, as mentioned by another user here too!
And most of the 77 citaros are now deployed onto 975...
SBS6031Y, SBS6017P > 185
Although it has been only a few days after the transfer, these redeployments might be permament judging from how SMRT deployed the buses.

Add in 119C also...i think the redeployment may be this:
307AP01: 98D
307AP02: 99B
307AP03: 119C
307AP04: 124L
307AP05: 125J
307AP06: 126G
Suspect SBS7529Y is SLBP 181.
Been seeing it doing 181 at the same time slot for consecutive days.
TIB708A
KJDEP SP > KJDEP Ferry Svc
There wasn't any reports of it doing any service recently, except Ferry Service. Today I also spotted it on Ferry Service together with TIB707C. Can anyone confirm the status of its deployment?
Everyday see SBS3653Y on Service 157

143 BSEP deployment:

SBS9817C

*All BSEP buses will be labelled as BRBP, unless it has been officially transfered to SLBP.
KIV for these buses, as this is based on observations today.
then 70 replacement is?
After another week of observation:
SMB127D, SMB128B >> KJ 307
SMB3131X >> KJ 307 (AP90)
SMB3117M now do AP91 slot, and i guess AP buses will rotate shift instead of fixing at one shift. For today, its like this:
SMB125J (AP01)
SMB126G (AP02)
SMB98D (AP03)
SMB99B (AP04)
SMB127D (AP05)
SMB128B (AP06 -- this should be on 124L slot as 128B seems to be S bus)
Tomorrow is Sunday, shall see if they do other slots tomorrow...if yes, means confirm they rotate slot already..
Meanwhile,
SMB119C may not be perm 307 afterall..

I doubt they will need to transfer them to slbp. SBS can operate 143 as it is right now, then transfer the buses straight to Tower Transit when the time comes.

7473Z very likely. 7622K/8949L still have ads.

It is BUDEP Ferry Svc, and yes it is more or less confirmed as SMB1466T has not been seen operating on this service for quite some time..

Probably they implanted the "rotating duties" culture to 307..

How could u speculate this when u havent seen all this service on SLBP or BN yet. What if suddenly throw to HG or AM or replace some missing SLBP buses? Do some ground work, dont speculate
SBS8630E
SBS6809X
(BN 66 -> BN 229)
Replacing 6335 and 6336 respectively, has anyone spotted this two buses on any SL service or it went to BN 66 like some of the BSEP Batch 1?
SBS3873D
SLBP 257 -> SLBP 256
I believe there should be some more 257 buses going over to 256.
