  The bus is now SP, it was also SP when it was with Central, am I right?

  SBS 3652 A was my ex-232 in the late 90s. After convertion to aircon, it became a 238 permer for a while. In 2002, it became a bram SP. In early 2004, it was transferred to AMDEP to become its SP. It cameo-ed on services like 88 410 before.
  
  On the week after the Nicoll Highway Collapse, this guy, together with SBS 0033 G and SBS 3676 G were transferred to BNDEP. These 3 became SP over there.
  
  ok now for today's cameos... both BN and AM are kee siao..

  SBS 3652A has been x-ferred to BNDEP after Nicoll Highway collapse. Think it's a temporary move. It was an AMDEP SP bus.

  Both buses were transferred from HGDEP soon after the NEL Rationalisation Exercise. SBS9224M can be considered an SP bus but usually seen on Service 69 most of the time. SBS9234J has been a perm bus of Townlink 291 ever since the transfer.

  SBS 0121 K of 158 doing 158A this morning.

  637 P is probably a spare. BNDEP Mk3s that are permanent on a service dont usually run around a lot, its the large fleet of spares that do.
  
  Those Mk3s have been on Sv 19 for about a week, maybe SBS decided to transfer out the Scanias and replace with the Mk3s?

  Cameos galore at Eunos, pity i was not free to camp for them.
  
  Anyways the strider on 94 was SBS 1904L.
  First mk2 1696L was also on 94 (HGdep ex-119, now SP, was on sv132 yesterday).
  And then we have 2811 as quoted by FS which i did not have the luck to see.

  I have a photo of 601S on Service 60, indicating it was a HG bus. Transfer to BN also ah.
  
  121K is super-perm on 158A, the other bus that does the morning run is 141C. 3913Y used to do the afternoon runs of 158B last year, not sure about now. Both 121 and 141 are shared with Services 70 and 72 after they do 158A.

  2787 is permer 51, should be SLBP
  i took 466 on svc 161 today. according to my records, was on svc 21 last year. but i saw svc 124 guides inside today, so i presume it has been doing 124 recently.

  SBS2768G, in my terms is, a 1-week-per-service bus. Why? I notice this bus sticks to a particular service for only a week or so, then on to another service the very next week. It was on Service 18 for 1 week sometime in April and slightly less than a week on Townlink 222 in February or March. SBS2768G went on to another service after a week in both cases. Now, the bus has been on Service 12 since Monday.
  
  And dude, I thought you are the 'caretaker' of PSR/TAM bus services? How come you did not know that SBS9629D has been a permanent bus of Service 17, alongside its sisters, SBS9631X and SBS9668R. Another of its sister, SBS9666X is now a perm bus of Service 23. These 4 buses were transferred from AMDEP, much to the disgust of SBS9818A
