  Quite a few shocks today .
  
  2619D , 996C , 9432D , 794T , 9260H and 9378C on bus 9 .
  
  I believe these buses are borrowed from Bedok North depot and will be on bus 9 for at least until this coming sunday when 82's volvos be released for other services in Hougang south depot .
  
  The rest of the buses in bus 9 fleet are Hougang south's depot buses .I have to monitor to see any significant changes to the fleet .
  
  1810 spotted on 197 (Hooray) , 9364S , 797 , 864 and 9345Y spotted on bus 197 , I suspect 197 has transferred to Hougang south depot , I have to keep a watch on this too .

  If that's the case, i wonder which routes these ADDs used to serve. Service 82 maybe? I think we should look at Svc 82's fleet. I got a feeling there'll be more single decks this week before its amendment.
  
  As for the Scania N113CRB, would it be a possibility if they're idling in AMDEP or they're serving other PAC services?

  SBS 3644 Z is definitely permanent on 157. I've been seeing it many times on this svc.
  
  I wonder if SBS 3680 T is a temporary bus on Svc 157. It is a permanent bus on Svc 238. Is bram re-deploying some of the bus fleet? I think one MB0405 replaced this bus on Svc 238 today. I didnt check 238's fleet today.

  2 New Discoveries today (2nd Dec)
  
  1. I saw an empty Svc 145 of SBS 3697 X heading towards Toa Payoh Int for afternoon service. The ironic thing is that I never see Scanias on Svc 145. Moreover the bus belongs to Svc 238! In return, i saw at total of 2 Mk 2 buses plying Svc 238. Apparantly Mk2 makes guest apperance on Svc 238 when one of its Scanias is under mantainance.
  
  2. Svc 143 of SBS 9017 U started service at Newton Rd towards Toa Payoh @1853 hrs. Judging from the driver's timetable, there were 6 complete trips (Between Jurong East & Toa Payoh) during the day and 1 short trip at the end of the 6 trips. This short trip is the trip i mentioned above (Newton Rd - Toa Payoh Int). From my speculation, I think this short trip was to prevent people along the Novena area of waiting Svc 143 for too long because the next Svc 143 bus may have been caught in a jam at Orchard Rd.
  
  Note: SBS 9017 U goes back to the depot after the short trip.

  Something is up with Service 238's fleet. I wonder if SBST is trying to split the Scanias up or not. I've seen 3 sub bus today. 2 are MB0405 while 1 is the bram run-around SBS 3652 A.

  I've been noticing since August/September this year about this NEW discovery.
  
  In the evening peak on weekdays, Service 238 has a crossover bus from Service 26. The plate is SBS 512 R, before that it was used to be SBS 323 U. The bus will arrive around 1810 hrs at the feeder services alighting area instead of the Svc 26 berth. The bus driver will then change the plate to 238 before running into service at around 1816 hrs. The bus will make 3 trips of Svc 238 before returning to the depot at around 2000 hrs.
  
  Interested parties, visit TP Int at 6pm tml to find out.

  This is the same case for some VO 3-axles of Service 30. The buses will serve Service 18 shortly after the buses arrive from Boon Lay at around 6pm. The buses will continue serving Service 18 until around 8, and straight to the depot after that. On certain occasions, the buses will serve Service 18 first before crossing over to Service 30 at around 8am.
  
  The arrangement for Service 222 Superbuses was the same as Service 18, before the service got its perm Superbuses ie SBS9211A, SBS9300B & SBS9587R recently.
  
  In summary, both Services 18 & 222 shared Superbuses with Service 30, with only Services 18 & 30 sharing Superbuses up to this day.
  
  Cheers and warm regards

  Bascially, SBS 9421K was a sv 7 bus. But then it went to Express 511 till its life got expired. Then it became a Sv 89 bus till 29 Nov and became 107 on 30 Nov
