BUDEP/AMDEP control would be better for 167.
Sembawang has been under AMDEP for a few months already.
Same for 859.
👋 Hey gina,Sembawang used to be under Woodlands purview in case you didn't know.859 is still under Wldep also.

This bus like pingpong like that...KJ to WL to KJ to WL now back to KJ
Keep an eye if it doesn't cameo for extended periods high chance it should be replacing the volgrens for training.
Actually I'm still surprised that they haven't start to find the replacement for the TRG (volgren) buses yet though it's october and 958U's departure is just weeks away to be honest.

Perm Training buses is not hard to find,Find those ever involved in an accident or the one which engine CMI I'm sure thats what most operators do.

It doesn't seem that way when the 11 volgrens were picked for perm training back in 2014 back then.(TIB958U TIB963D-TIB965Z in 2016 were the odd ones to get converted last)
When SMB191S got converted to L-plate to replace TIB830D back then in April I don't think it's due to engine conditions but more on a FIFO basis.
Let time tell who gets converted but if 202U is missing without cameo-ing around then it's clear where it ended up.

So you expect SMB189,200-20x deploy for training buses?
And funny thing why Kjdep need SMB183 when they don't have any Citaros now?

Excuse me, I know that it was once under WLDEP. That is why I said 'for a few months already'.

Your statement always misleading leh..Why Sembawang cannot be under Woodlands when the off service distance is much nearer than Amdep?With all service under BCM do you still think Budep can control Bt Merah side for 167?

Anyway, is 969 run time that long, as for 27-30 Buses to be deployed?
As for 857, its berth in Yishun is not long enough.
969 people claimed that the fleet consist of 29 duties which i doubt so,Runtime already 1hr 05 mins and buses are crawling at 35-40kmh on expressways..Maybe 27 duties is more appropriate.Got 1 S67 split shift that will do S969 during PM split..

Route familiarisation.
Same thing as why smrt needs o405 volgren trg when they have no more o405 on revenue svc

OK, I have a better example.
Why is 857 under partial WLDEP control when its only terminal is under AMDEP control?
So you are saying that 856 is not under WLDEP either?

How big is AMDEP compared to WLDEP?
SG5746L still reflected in 983?Sgwiki..
SMRT should have moved 857 to full AMDEP and let WLDEP take back half of 969 duties. More practical this way.

For info, 857 started off as full WLDEP controlled when it was introduced back in Jan 2001. While 965 started off as dual AM/WL when introduced in 2002.
It was somewhere in Nov 2010 when 965 moved to full WLDEP in exchange for 857 under dual AMDEP.
