SBS2617J (BNDEP 45) (awaiting lay up/deregistration)

Volvo B10M lay-up buses (28 buses):

SBS920X, SBS973T, SBS975M, SBS980Y, SBS983P, SBS985J - SBS987D, SBS1963R, SBS1964M, SBS1966H - SBS1969A, SBS1971S - SBS1984E

I suspect that more could have been laid up since SBS Transit should have sent some (especially SBS985J and SBS1984E) to scrapyard already...can someone check if any of the regos from late December batches and February batches from MK4s are no longer on service?

What about the 30 DM3500s on 26 Feb 2015?

969G still spotted on service 3-5 days ago. But sooner or later the February 2015 batches would be lay up, all the way to the 2017 batch...

For those with ads, the ad can be transferred to another bus.

I feel that SBS Transit may deal with the DM3500s differently, as they are not considered the same batch with the DMs and Striders de-registering in the same month...

SBS969G is Dec batch.

SBS1688K also deregister in Jan 2015. I wonder if it is still on service.

Still spotted on service on 19 Sep. Yesterday it wasn't on service though.

Why is AMDEP hoarding spare KUBs?

Somehow no one replied to this post of yours. But from my point of view, i don't think AMDEP is specifically "hoarding SP KUBs". From operations' standpoint, it's more efficient since they have much more KUBs than Citaros and it's easier to deploy the SP KUBs as replacements on any services.

Saw one strider with faded livery on the top at BNDEP corner, not sure if it one of those Jan 2015 batch. If it isnt i suspect is 1930K.

Someone help me check out 2710Y's replacement on Sv 2 for me. Seems to be 6741G from spottings lately.

2710Y was seen moving around bedok int for the past 2 weeks already. Once on 38, other time was on a bedok feeder. It is out by now.

is there a citaro on 17 lately? I saw 6762X last week back I think.

Citaro on 17 should be cameos for missing KUBs. 949P still on and 2777E too.

So yeah anyway, replacement for 2710Y should be Citaro (don't think they'll extend 2716G and put it there).

Likewise for 1974 J's Sv 358 slot. Replacement seems to be a Citaro although I've yet to spot a consistent one yet in past 3 weeks for 1974J's slot.

But now SBST seems to be trying to kick all the B10Ms, not just the DMs and Striders.

SBS3004X SG

What's next? A modified de-registration schedule for DM3500s? Something like this?

26 Oct 2014 SBS2716G - SBS2736Z
15 Nov 2014 SBS2737X - SBS2740K
22 Nov 2014 SBS2741H - SBS2743C, SBS2745Y - SBS2747S
5 Dec 2014 SBS2748P, SBS2749L
16 Jan 2015 SBS2750G
4 Feb 2015 SBS2751D - SBS2757M
30 Feb 2015 SBS2758K - SBS2769D
7 Mar 2015 SBS2770Z - SBS2773R
9 Mar 2015 SBS2774M - SBS2778C
11 Mar 2015 SBS2779A
15 Apr 2015 SBS2780U - SBS2785G
20 May 2015 SBS2786D - SBS2788Z
25 Dec 2015 SBS2789X - SBS2838M

If they seriously want to do it, maybe it will look like this.

If there is proof that any buses regoed between 2716G and 2736Z is missing from service, I would then accept your claim.

SBS2734D is on 107 today... SBS2718B is still on some ARBP services. Looks like the info is not accurate...

SBS3004X SG

None of the DMs and Striders de-registering in Feb 2015 have been laid up either.

SBS1987Y on 158
