  I just dug out my bus ticket collection. Here are some of the outstanding tickets I have noticed.
  
  
  
  Services 7, 66 and 196 have gotten O302s.
  
  
  
  Services 30 and 66 have gotten Victories.
  
  
  
  Service 118. Notice that the fare is 35cents. This would be before the Gulf War price hike of 1990.
  
  
  
  A prepaid ticket I bought at former Hill St Police Station bus stop. (Currently MITA HQ)
  
  
  
  Former TIBS style bus ticket. Notice that it prints the full date including year.
  
  Stay tuned for more interesting updates.

  I think it should be 1997? I stopped using Student farecard in 1997.

  You are right. I saw the VO 3 axles on sv 26 in December 1997 (just days before 7 Dec when Eu Tong Sen St was closed for NEL construction).

  True. But if anyone has any special requests, I could try to search for them and scan them in. At least everyone else can share them.

  Woh! SBS 29 on Sv 118! Haha! Remembering the times that I actually took it to and fro Hougang South Interchange when I was young, for art classes.
