  yes it did use Superbuses at one time. in fact when SBS9592--SBS9596 were brand new, they were put on svc 26 before going to do toher services.
  Svc 26 eventually lost its superbuses.
  
  re: Service 139
  
  Service 139 did had superbuses for 6 motnhs ot so. it used LO3x.
  :9005 9006 9008 9045 9054 9066 9142 9145 and 9174

  i feel at least svc 33 shd get double decks during peak hours. (and i ahve not been seeing those Svc33A buses that were launched in april 2003)
  354 could had used VO3x
  Svc 334 by right should be using Superbuses but i dunno what SBSt is doing since they scrapped all of 334's perm LO2x. 335 however still uses LO2x.
  
  167 need not use Bendybuses:
  i have been taking 167 these days and the bus is not very full on most of my peak hour trips. only standing pax around 6. not justified for bendybus.
  same for 855. because of the seats removed, otherwise everyone can get seat.

  Yes, when it was first extended to Sengkang it was using full MK3 fleet. Now the fleet of service 156 consists on MK2 (DM/WA), MK3, MK4 WA (Strider) and MK4 DM3500.

  Yes, once it was extended the fleet became full Mk III buses. Before extension, about 1-2 months before it, Mk IIIs came into Sv. 156, currently Sv. 156 fleet is majority Mk IV, with Mk IIIs and rarely Mk IIs(morning peak).

  Service 33 cannot uses double deckers due to the narrowness of Joo Chiat Place.
  
  Service 33A operates one way from Kent Ridge terminal to Tiong Bahru MRT station between 4.30pm and 7.00pm on weekdays only.
