  In case you haven't know, Service 9 is now fully controlled by BNDEP, in exchange for Services 32 and 197, which is now under HGDEP control.

  Apparently bus 9 has been transferred to bndepot . I am still unhappy with that change because no more mark 2s and no chance of trident and VSO on bus 9.

  PA 4696 X and PA 4697 T (both former Sentosa B10Ms) are now on Turf City shuttles. PA 4697 T is on Clementi service while PA 4696 X is parking at Turf City.
  
  This B10M is fast and smooth compared to their SBS Transit counter parts.

  yes. i've sat on it today & i think it is a waste not putting it on revenue svc. the engine is still working very well. my choice for it would be svc 36. and i find the voith gearbox on the bus more accelerative than most voiths. gd.
  
  btw how many of these B10Ms do SBST have other than the 2 on Turf City svcs?

  Off Service and myself also concur that these buses use Voiths rather than ZF. Maybe SBS9818A should take a ride on them a few times to confirm. Maybe record the whistle and run through a comprehensive analyst on the sound waves.

  That B10Ms use Voith if i'm memories and hearings doesn't fail me.
  Whistling sound make it more obvious.

  Apparently 4694B uses ZF, as it sounded EXACTLY like a Strider to me. No whistling whatsoever. I'll have to check them out again soon.
  
  Today's cameos :
  
  SBS 499X on Sv. 238 ( BRAM 8 )
  SBS 201M on Sv. 238 ( BRAM SP )
  PA 4693D on AMK - Turf City sv.
  SBS 722B on Sv. 99 ( BBDEP 170 )
  SBS 2823E on Sv. 518 ( BNDEP 15 )
  SBS 739D on Sv. 111 ( BBDEP 170 )
  TIB 939A on Sv. 167 ( AMDEP 169 )
  SBS 9192X on Sv. 88 ( AMDEP 22 )
  SBS 127U on Sv. 90 ( BRAM SP )
  SBS 3720L on Sv. 235 ( BRAM 90 )
  SBS 386M on Sv. 88 ( BRAM 139 )
  SBS 3626B on Sv. 37 ( BNDEP SP )
  SBS 3581X on Sv. 291 ( BNDEP 3 )
  SBS 3716A on Sv. 81 ( BNDEP 17 )
  SBS 0079A on Sv. 293 ( BNDEP 222 )
  SBS 9568X on Sv. 18 ( BNDEP 30 )
  SBS 3922X on Sv. 101 ( AMDEP 72 )
  
  SBS 9568X is most probably the Sv. 18 / Sv. 30 changeover bus, together with 9460 and a Yokohama ad VO.
