How about weekends? Will try to hit this bus.
-
nopes, driver didn't have tat timesheet around. didn't ask if the bus is out on wkends too, but i've boarded it on wkends before.Originally posted by leeJZ:How about weekends? Will try to hit this bus.
now i noe why i couldn't hit the bus during afternoon when it appears to have MIA yet if i wait at toa payoh mrt stop at 18:10 it'll come out of nowhere - it actually hides inside slbp!!! now, the bus is really like a demonstration bus for the time being, with only 2 return trips a day. -
SWING 1152 1549
Swing to where? -
For the afternoon trip, wish to confirm whether it's driven by 2 captains.

Swing to SLBP for its afternoon nap?Originally posted by tranquilice:SWING 1152 1549

i think it jus stays in slbp. no one saw 2989K on other svcs rite?Originally posted by tranquilice:SWING 1152 1549

i think it's one capt per day. the pay hour for the timesheet is for the whole day. -
So that mean this one captain will drive from 1608 hrs to 1928 hrs, with only 5 minutes break at Serangoon int?Originally posted by ^tamago^:i think it jus stays in slbp. no one saw 2989K on other svcs rite?

Also, what will the captain do when the bus is in SLBP in the afternoon for 4 hours? -
Maybe he'll hitch a ride back to Jurong East and do Sv 105 on the normal buses?Originally posted by tranquilice:So that mean this one captain will drive from 1608 hrs to 1928 hrs, with only 5 minutes break at Serangoon int?

Possible, however look at the afternoon timesheet, not much rest.Originally posted by leeJZ:Maybe he'll hitch a ride back to Jurong East and do Sv 105 on the normal buses? -
There's one that arrives Napier Rd (Opp British Council) after 1510 hrs on Saturdays, If the timesheet doesnt change, expect one gassy towards SGN then.Originally posted by leeJZ:How about weekends? Will try to hit this bus. -
[Ok Let me explain to all of you about the timesheet in detail.
In the morning, the driver gets the bus @0627 hrs. He can get it earlier if he can and reach JUR earlier than 0646 hrs. Most of the drivers usually reach the interchange before time.
The driver goes for Service 105B in the morning. It terminates at Clementi MRT Stn bus stop - the bus stop after Blk 317 (Fare Stage 9). From there, the bus goes off service to JUR again for a trip of Service 105, starting @0734 hrs.
Usually, split shift drivers like this one have TEA stated in their timesheets if the break is about 12-15 min. In this case, it has one @SGN between 0913 hrs and 0926 hrs.
Another 105 trip back to JUR @0926 hrs, reaching there @1056. After disembarking the pax there, it goes for refuel @JI, reporting there at 1121 hrs. At the refuelling station, it spends 8 min to refuel and its back to SLBP @1149 hrs.
During this period of time its known as SWING for split shift drivers. During this time they can go home for lunch and do whatever they want. They may also stay at the depot but apparantly there's nothing to do there.
The driver reports back to SLBP by 1549 hrs to take his baby for 2 more trips in the evening.
After that its back to SLBP directly from JUR in the evening @1948 hrs.
FYI, tamago copied the timesheet WITHOUT the places as he stated. Instead, the bus stop codes are used beside the time. As for interchanges, T1 on that timesheet is SGN while T2 = JUR.
As for the JI refuelling station, i'm not sure what was stated on the timesheet.
Cheers!

yup, the places were added for easy reading or else we would have to refer to our bus guides. all timesheets are in a simple format of fare stage, time & bus codes, which is only meaningful for the drivers themselves who drive the same route day in day out.Originally posted by service_238:FYI, tamago copied the timesheet WITHOUT the places as he stated.

for JI refuelling station, it's stated as "cng" for bus stop code. -
Wow... Sometimes I think a bus captain's job is a tough one...Originally posted by service_238:[Ok Let me explain to all of you about the timesheet in detail.

so this bugger doesnt come out after the return to JUR post 1900hrs.
am i correct also to conjecture that the 2 CNG buses are there to beef up th existing 105 fleet for the peak hours.
how about anyone caught the timesheet for its brother 2988? -
dun think he will drive.Originally posted by tranquilice:Possible, however look at the afternoon timesheet, not much rest.
my ex tuition kids father was doing split shift on ex SBST 67. he will return home after he sends the bus back to BBDEP at 10+ in the morning then go back to collect the bus at around 2+ in the afternoon -
The Gassy bus didn't turn up at Serangoon Interchange this morning.
Waited from about 8.50am till 9.45am, but no Mr. Gassy. -
Yusry,I feel it is better for you to wait @ Jurong East.Originally posted by Yusry:The Gassy bus didn't turn up at Serangoon Interchange this morning.

i suppose if it doesn't turn up it wun for tat day. if it turned up it will turn up as scheduled.Originally posted by Yusry:The Gassy bus didn't turn up at Serangoon Interchange this morning.

as for 2988M, wait till i can board it. so far i haven't boarded it. -
i think 2988 is 2 or 3 buses after 2989... i ever boarded it ard 840 to 850 os c'wealth mrt
-
2988M and 2989K are supposedly perm but appear only sporadically. Thanks tamago!
-
Somehow SBS 2988 M is on maintenance and some sorta test run, and therefore it would not be back on Sv 105 for this period of time. In the meanwhile, I would like to tell u guys that 2988M time slot is: Arrival at Serangoon Int (0946); Departure from Serangoon at (1013). Another time slot would be Leaving JE at 1547, Reaching Serangoon at 1715. Leave Serangoon at 1725.

The last time I took 2989M (19 Dec 2003), the gassy left Jurong East around 1630hr and reach Serangoon Int around 1745hr.Originally posted by SBS9816E:Somehow SBS 2988 M is on maintenance and some sorta test run, and therefore it would not be back on Sv 105 for this period of time.

If i'm not wrong 2988M took this slot today.
I'm now beginning to wonder does the 2 gassies operate together or one at a time? :S -
oh, it's finally out. i haven't seen it for years. and i haven't boarded 2988M yet, all the time 2989K comes at me.
could it be 2989K's turn to do test run? or could it be the high costs that kept SBST from using them too much until time is up in 2006?
