  SBS 585 E was deployed on service 38.I am very sure that this bus is from HGDEP as the label on the bus showed SP. Nowadays service 3 is now getting lots of Volvo ( I mean the side desto is made of metal). Usually see SBS 720 G on this service

  SBS 1791 U on 199 <-- It's odd seeing a Mk 2 on a BNL service
  SBS 2761 A on 93
  SBS 391 Y on 232
  SBS 3652 A on 232
  SBS 441 L on 238, replacing SBS 3722 G
  
  I realised today's 93 fleet is mainly made up of DM3500. I didnt see any VO 2 on 93 so far today. Is 93 getting a change of fleet?

  SBS585E was transferred from HGDEP along with several other Mk3s in early December 2003. It is now a spare bus at BNDEP.

  Not that odd though. There is around 10 or so Mark 2s based at SLBP.

  All VO 3-axle which is perm now on Service 291 was ex-HGDEP. They were transferred over to BNDEP shortly after the Phase 1 NEL Rationalization Exercise.

  They should take from Hougang south depot instead, I think they have some spare ones.

  Captain, you dun much say in this. Basically such transfer is being done by the district themselves, so as not to have too many excess buses to be left in the depot during peak hours. I personally feel that AMKDEP needs a lot more DD buses, since there are services that certainly needs DD.

  Well, Mk 2 appearing at BNL is now a norm, since they are there to replaces the LO 2 Axle of certain svcs.
  
  As far as I could see, Sv 93's VO 2 Axle are getting "phased out" due to the demand of NAC DD for BNL Jurong Industrial Svcs.

  I beg to differ something: SBS 933 J is a run around for BNDEP. It did a lot of BNDEP svcs, such as 168, 39, 18, etc.

  There is only one transferred to Central District at this moment. I suppose that there might be more VO 3 Axle being transferred to the Central District in the weeks to come. However, who knows what SBST would want to do in the next few weeks? No one knows, unless you can predict what are the buses to be transferred to Central District. =P

  Sv. 93 is getting DM3500 Mk IVs in return for moving 2-axle VOs to SLBP. SLBP has about 10 Mk IIs for use on JIS.

  Its likely more will be transferred over. Sv. 162 will need double-decks in time to come, its loads are quite healthy now. Other AMDEP services that need double decks are Sv. 238 (let's hope)

  If 238 needs ADDs, they'll revise the timesheet again. Which means i need to copy all over again and copying a timesheet from a driver driving an ADD is very sickening..
  
  I dont think 238 needs ADDs because a fraction of the passengers is the elderly and they already have problems getting on the bus. I noticed that while copying timesheets today...

  Does 96 have ADDs for now as there was an ex for viability? Also how was the loading of the enhanced 182?
