10 started using double deckers since 1984 (when it was extended to Tampines Avenue 5)

61 started using double deckers since 1988 (when it was extended to Bukit Batok)

106 started using double deckers since 1985 (when it was extended to Bukit Batok)

Now 61 only got SD. So sad.

SBS 1000U SG

I thought they used ex-105 Mercs from AMDEP?

Not very sure of the deployments of that period but I know there are still B10Ms.

SBS8533C SG

What was the route for 404??? It starts from the old Jurong Interchange but go where???

404 used to be from Jurong Interchange to Science Ctr Rd (Loop)

Jurong Int, Jurong Port Rd, Jln Ahmad Ibrahim, Jurong Town Hall Rd, (un-named Road), Science Ctr Rd, (un-named Road), Jurong Town Hall Rd, Jln Ahmad Ibrahim, Jurong Port Rd, Jurong Int.

Service 63 fleet used to be like this after 5th Sep 2004:

MB O405: 161U 168B 221E 246J 261P 307S 317M 331X 3747K 3833U 3842T
MK 4 DM: 882Y 959K 1897Z 1922J 1925B 2610C

1926Z join in later to replace 959K which goes back to HGDEP 27 perm. It was under BRAM 63 for a short while.

959K used to be a HGDEP 63 perm before becoming BRAM 63.

Those in BOLD are used to be from AMDEP 105 perm.
Those in BLUE are used to be from AMDEP 100 perm.

Did TIBS & SMRT 307 have bendy cameoes before?

SBS8676Z SG

10 started using double deckers since 1984 (when it was extended to Tampines Avenue 5)

61 started using double deckers since 1988 (when it was extended to Bukit Batok)

10 used to have Albion Vikings if I am not wrong.

Before 61 was extend to Bt Batok, it was a full SD fleet comprising of Albion Vikings as well as Merc OF1417s (Hawke body).

SBS8676Z SG

The Mark 3 and the Mark 4 from HGDEP until 2004? By the way which buses do they use from 2004 to 2007 in BRBP?

63 was never under HGDEP controlled until the merger with 382 took place in 2002. I believe MK3 and MK4 from ARBP were deployed those days.

Anyway the history of service 63's depot controlled since its introduction in 1992:-

Did TIBS & SMRT 307 have bendy cameoes before?

Yes, TIB1119T in 2007, Sv 190/307 xover

SBS5010P SG

How many buses did 321 have?

Gus.chong SG

Yes, TIB1119T in 2007, Sv 190/307 xover

I also remembered some Choa Chu Kang services having bendy cameoes as well. 927 and 985 are two of them.

When 106 was handed to TIBS for the first time, How many starts did it have from both KJ and AM?

When does 242 stopped to have perm DDs? Where did the former 242 DD perms go?

SBS8676Z SG

When does 242 stopped to have perm DDs? Where did the former 242 DD perms go?

Should be in Mar 2009 when feeder 242 was cutback to loop at JW St 71. The DDs went over to the new feeder 241 that plies along Pioneer MRT and JW St 91.

SBS5151R SG

Should be in Mar 2009 when feeder 242 was cutback to loop at JW St 71. The DDs went over to the new feeder 241 that plies along Pioneer MRT and JW St 91.

242 still have one DD perm until March 2011.

Though most of former SLBP 242 DD perms (SBS9100L, SBS9109M, SBS9156B & SBS9187L) become SLBP 241 perms, but only one perm remains and that is SBS9121B. Somewhere in July/August 2010, it was replaced by SBS9176T. SBS9176T was de-registered in March 2011, that was when 242 stopped to have DD perms.

241's Leyland Olympians were now replaced by Volvo Olympians and Volvo B9TLs.
