  bingo boy! with exceptions of feeders of course... The trunks which is full Central control are...
  
  013 022 024 025 026 053 054 055 056 070 072 073 076 082 088 090 100 101 103 124 125 130 131 133 135 136 138 139 142 145 155 158 159 162 186 400
  
  Total: 36 services!
  
  Partial control are...
  
  With BNDEP:
  008 021 028 031 168 (5)
  
  With SLBP:
  105 143 157 (3)
  
  With HGDEP:
  161 (1)
  
  With BBDEP:

  In Short, all services from BSH YCK and AMK (Except 86 & 166) are full control under AMDEP.

  The first SMRT bus on 307. A historic day. Hinos are rare on 307, btw.

  Ok, I got this rare photo too.
  
  
  
  Hmm..no matter how rare is it to find a Hino on 307, I believe it's nothing compared to a Hino on 222.

  Maybe they like to encode things in the EDS in case SMRTBus takes over Bedok SBS also like that, ZYX saw a Trident displaying Sv 23 info

  What's happening? The EDS got prob? Why is a SMRT bus serving a SBST 222 route? Somebody explain this.......
• cck_190

  This is an EDS problem. The driver tried to fix it 3times before it got the corect number, 307....or maybe, this is a sign that SMRT is taking over Bedok?

  Did the side EDS also had 222? Did you noticed what happened at that time? How did you felt when you see the desto?

  I would wager that the side desto also displays 222. This is because the route number is controlled only by one out of the 4 fields that the driver has to key in to get the entire desto. Different models have different codes, but in case anyone is interested,
  
  1st field: Route number ( either the number or route code )
  2nd field: Route details code
  3rd field : Direction code
  4th field: Font code ( eg. Bold like svc 980 UK lance desto )
  
  For simplicity, the codes for the 4 fields are the same so the driver only remembers 2 codes for trunk svcs, one to and one back. These sets of codes are in sequence. Eg. 434 for forward, 435 for backwards.
  
  We had even tried and successfully displayed svc 400 on TIB1186Z on our visit to Woodlands Depot last yr.

  The codes go by the letters A, B, L, M. If I'm not mistaken, A and B control the front and side destos respectively. L should be the destination, eg YISHUN via XXX XXX and M would be for rear desto, if any. A and B can be controlled solely by the A button.

  Btw, the EDS mistake occurs sometimes... just like NR1 (supposed to be 985) CHOA CHU KANG via Jln Toa Payoh... people don't dare to take the bus... Last month occurance.

  Ingenious way of putting a square desto on a rectangular-desto bus.
