  SBS 9675 U on 153 (62)
  
  Some clarification about the 9833E incident. I saw it turning left but i couldnt get a look at the desto at all. moments later, i saw a Mk5 88 at the 88 boarding berth. Maybe the driver thought he's operating AA2004 but realised that he's driving 72 instead? :lol

  9800A on Sv 51 and an unidentified VSO on Sv 86?! Is 9800A doing an ultra split shift? Or Sv 86 uses an Ang Mo Kio Depot VSO?
  Is that Unidentified VSO with EDS?

  The bus can work on split shift. Even TIBS buses do that.

  Nope, that VSO on service 86 does not use EDS.
  
  I was on 9672C of service 89 in Sengkang when I noticed this VSO at junction of Compassvale Dr and Compassvale Rd heading towards Sengkang interchange, however, I can't see the rego as it was raining too heavily this afternoon.

  Possible. I saw the unidentified VSO on service 86 before I boarded 9800A on service 51.

  Nope. SBS 2730 P seems like a SP for BNDEP. I've seen it on many other services before.

  To me, there's a few more possible explanations:
  
  1. 9800A works on ultra split shift that day, it's seen on svs 51, 80 and 86 (not so confirmed)
  
  2. AMKDEP loaned a VSO to sv 86 for the day.
  
  3. Sv 86 is moved to AMKDEP as the base depot (which I think is highly impossible for now).
  
  If no. 3 comes true, perhaps the new HarbourFront service that xin1jun2 mentioned could be coming true.

  Are you sure?
  
  What abt 15, 358, 359, 518 then? They turn right to the direction of NTUC DTE?

  Didn't know these services used double-decks from AMDEP. Very interesting.

  If AMDEP buses begin operating on Sv. 86 it could mean that the HBF service might be a reinstatement of Sv. 85, but for 9800A to be on THREE services is a little insane, unless a bus broke down on one of the services and it was called in to help.

  Yes, put you did not put yourself clearly
  
  You said this "No other service otherthan 88 turns left". You did not say "No other service that turns left uses ADD other than 88". It was superbus who clarified it.

  SBS3814A on 168
  TIB943L (854) has a very weird-looking front door. 1 side is in TIBS livery while the other is black in colour. The DENSO aircon is also mounted at the centre of the roof, unlike others mounted nearer the front.

  Are you sure its 3596D cos I saw a NAC Scania on 157 today(and 3596D is a perm on 157), but one thing's for sure 3590U is a Training bus.

  I think number 2 is more possible. Anyway this is just a guess.
