  Sv 28 always has a few WA buses in operation everyday, about 2-3.
  
  Sv 162 has O405s? I only seen Mk4 DM3500s. On Sv 166, only seen Striders and VOs.
  
  My mistake. The new Sv 101 has plenty of Scanias, but Merz still dominates Serangoon.

  Yes, correct. Service 25 SD fleet is all 0405s.

  You can hit Sengkang / Hougang / Serangoon, should get a good haul.

  Let me summarise for u as i've been to the north east over the past week or so..
  
  PUN - 3 62 83 136 (84 doesnt have) (AMK and SGN will be there if the int ppl didnt find out)
  SEK - 86 119 163 (80 87 156 159 163 MIA)
  HGN - 27 74 89 113 147 153
  SGN - 82 101 (rest MIA) (AMK will be there if the int ppl didnt find out)
  
  Advice: DO NOT go to TPY for any guides. It's useless.

  Other havens for Benzes are Ang Mo Kio (only 86 133 166 do not have them), Bishan (all 5 buses have them as majority fleet), Yio Chu Kang (all except 162 which has a full Mk4 DM3500 fleet have), and Toa Payoh (only 90 155 157 dun have, 90 have on weekends).

  Wrong, 155 has 4 merz from bram/amdep
  157 has at least two merz from bram and lots of merz from slbp

  Unless an MK5 cameos on it, which is occasionally though.

  Svc 86 used to have the one and only O405 on service... but gone in 2002/3.
  Svc 101 has 70% of MB O405s!
  
  How can I not known this since I live in AMK???

  I thought 166 had 2 405G CAC - 3835 P & 3875 Z only?
  I don't think there is 4 405G on 162.
  The 405G on 86 is it 543B? It used to be a SP in HGDEP. I had seen it on 9, 64, ex-85, 111(old), 147.
