SBST
Old svc 179/344>Very memorable svc foe me. I used to live in Woodlands but my school is in Bt Panjang with near my grandma's house. Then, alight at Old Bangkit Road bus-stop then transfer to svc 187 to Woodlands.
SBST 190> Like the superbuses, goodlink to Orchard Rd and nice view from the upper deck -
SV 41 and 149 I remember taking those bus services very often I was staying in marine parade when I was young.
I was happy to see mercedes on 149 when the mercedes replaced the scanias. But when 149 became partially air con. I was disappointed to see scania replacing the mercedes NAC buses. At that time I wished 149 was a full mercedes fleet. -
For me, I missed service 390 a lot. It was more "shiok" to ride compared to 36.
I also miss service 3, not for it's route, but for the CAC Leyland Victories that service 3 used. -
I miss service 865 the most.

For me,
svc 805 with those nice shorty Hinos.
svc 850 tt suffered a similar fate to svc 85. YIshun - Bukit Merah via Orchard, Shenton Way. The route is similar to tt of 167 today from Thomson Rd.
Svc 857 The short lived Sembawang estate feeder tt used the OAC UDs!!!
Svc 852 The former extension to Boon Lay b4 it was cut back to BBT.
Recent:
Svc 989!!!!! Damn TIBS for withdrawing it!!!!!! Bukit Timah to SIN in 40mins is possible with this svc. -

Do you mean the Yishun - Adm Rd West version? Shouldn't it be a trunk service?Originally posted by TIB1186Z:Svc 857 The short lived Sembawang estate feeder tt used the OAC UDs!!! -
Service 857 (Between Yishun and Admiralty Road West) never served Sembawang Estate. It is more lik a complementary service for the Senoko Industrial Estate. It was later integrated with service 169.Originally posted by TIB1186Z:For me,

I think he means the old Sembawang estate with majority 1 or 2 rooms flats.Originally posted by off_service:Service 857 (Between Yishun and Admiralty Road West) never served Sembawang Estate.

I know the route of this service 95 from Toa Payoh to Clementi is similar to service 105 pre-1993 version, but I'm interested to know the route between Toa Payoh and PLAB.Originally posted by xin1jun2:well lets see: what do i miss?

Braddell Road - Bartley Road - Upp Paya Lebar Road - Airport Road (loop) -
So it duplicated service 93 along the mentioned stretch of route back then.Originally posted by Yusry:Once it comes out of Toa Payoh, it was:
Braddell Road - Bartley Road - Upp Paya Lebar Road - Airport Road (loop) -
So when there was this 95, how do pax go from TPY to Macpherson Road?
-
I only have Service 1 and Service 224 in mind.
Cheers and warm regards -
Service 158 (Bedok - Toa Payoh), but only along the stretch between Paya Lebar and Aljunied.Originally posted by th1988:So when there was this 95, how do pax go from TPY to Macpherson Road?
Service 154 along Jln Toa Payoh to the stretch between Woodsville flyover and Aljunied. -
I remember 502 when it passes through a short stretch of yio chu kang rd, lorong chuan and the CTE and then to orchard.
-
Did 158 ever go to MacPherson Road? I always though it went by Bartley like 152.Originally posted by tranquilice:Service 158 (Bedok - Toa Payoh), but only along the stretch between Paya Lebar and Aljunied. -
Ok, I'm not very sure about the route but I think it went something like this, maybe someone can confirm the route here.Originally posted by Yusry:Did 158 ever go to MacPherson Road? I always though it went by Bartley like 152.
TPY int, Lor 6, Lor 4, Lor 6, Braddell Rd, Bartley Rd, Upp Paya Lebar Rd, MacPherson Rd, Aljunied Rd, in-and-out of MacPherson Estate, Aljunied Rd, Geylang Rd, Mountbatten Rd, Old Airport Rd, Dunman Rd, Tanjong Katong Rd, Mountbatten Rd, East Coast Rd, Siglap Rd, New Upp Changi Rd and Bedok int. -
a lot although some services have been withdrawn.like .like 134 and the 168 from amk interchange.tibs will be 161,850 .
-
Sounds plausible. I think Circuit Link did not exist then. Because even service 60 went by Aljunied Road to enter MacPherson estate before being amended to ply Geyland East Central.Originally posted by tranquilice:Ok, I'm not very sure about the route but I think it went something like this, maybe someone can confirm the route here.

According to my 1985 Bus Map, the service plied Aljunied Road right up till Guillemard Road, then it turned right, and then left towards Mountbatten Road.Originally posted by tranquilice:Ok, I'm not very sure about the route but I think it went something like this, maybe someone can confirm the route here.
