Heard from BCs that only during certain hours have the company bus to drive them to and from CG and BN, but frequency is rather bad. So most of them just take a bus, stop outside CG and walk in.

oh these BCs you are talking about... are they A/P shift drivers who need to collect/send their vehicles from/to the bus park in the morning/nights or S shift drivers who need to send and collect their vehicles in the afternoons?

SBS1929R SG

A/P drivers. They only send the vehicles to BN if there is maintenance to be done to the bus, if not its parked at CG. S shift drivers not too sure.

SMB189A SG

To Sgwiki User Neon, since when TIB915T perm on 853? And replacing which slot?

A/P drivers. They only send the vehicles to BN if there is maintenance to be done to the bus, if not its parked at CG. S shift drivers not too sure.

oh haha i was mentioning that based on my observations, A/P drivers who need to collect and return their vehicles from CG also use the employee buses because the EBs stops at both BN and CG. but yeah as you mentioned the EB is very infrequent.

as for S shift i believe that it doesn't matter where they park their buses. i've seen tampines S shift buses returning to BN even though they are from CG. if the BC doesn't have his/her own transport this would make sense because BN is much more accessible as compared to CG.

Is 3181S ARBP 14 as mentioned in sgwiki? I dont think so because it does on and off this service. There are many cameos spare and from sv5, 111 everyday.

Is there a AR marking on the dashboard or the driver's cabin? Or else it isnt for ARBP 14.

Nope, there isn't.

Apparently that guy(you know who you are, I just don't wan to say it) is just reverting back edits or judging from observations.

But AFAIK, before he edited as AR 14, someone stated it as AR 14 when I see it on 166 almost everyday. But after approx 2 weeks, I see this bus cameoing on services like 5 and 165. I guess that bus is SP rather than AR 14.

Plus I also noticed, SBS2687G only did 166 for 3 consec days covering 3181S, that slot is merely replaced by random BBDEP striders/dm3500, not SBS2687G

SBS9294K

(HGDEP SP) to (HGDEP 161)

Saw it everyday on 161 this month. Just need perm stix to confirm. maybe replace 9592A

Should be suspected as its unconfirmed.

TIB 585L SG

Should be suspected as its unconfirmed.

Ok. I posted it there but after that post. I saw it on 161 consistently

Rui jing SG

Nope, there isn't.

Me too also takes sv14 everyday and knows better than 3181S does not perm sv14..yes correct, dont assume that 3181S perms AR 14 yet when it is seen on it on and off. AR keeps on switching its buses here and there nowadays.

Deployments are dynamic, really I find why anyone needs to argue about things being changed and undone etc on sgwiki. It is just from a person's observation just like you mentioned for 2687G that seems to perm 166.

SBS 6078 M SG

Is there a neccessity to revert it back to BB 166 first?

SBS1929R SG

From what I see, CG is just a parking lot, I can't confirm this, but BCs need to take the bus back to BN just to refuel, and park it at CG overnight. Anyone can verify this?

TIB1234T SG

My mistake on TIB729P on 911, might be EDS prank... lol

SMB66X SG

Heard it's on 969?

Acx1688 SG

SBS2728Y also does sv16 occasionally too.

As for sv36, has 8262J been running on the same slot every time? Cant seem to find any of its buses missing. There has been a change in ett on 25 Mar. Not sure if there is a fleet add.

more or less...
fleet add...

Acx1688 SG

Adding on, for sv14, the new buses tend to stay for a while, ie run daily for 1 - 2 weeks , then off they go, 3124,3125, 3177 was the few new buses that demonstrated tt...
now the spares VO3X are running sv14 again SBS9246A is the most regular...

SBS 9631X SG

From what I see, CG is just a parking lot, I can't confirm this, but BCs need to take the bus back to BN just to refuel, and park it at CG overnight. Anyone can verify this?

Err yeah. There's no fuel pumps, nor bus washers at CG. You look across from the MRT lines, it's just a plot of white concrete space with lamp-posts and fencing. Everything is done at BNDEP. Refuel, maintenance. washing etc. Totally different from ARBP & BRBP.

But there are certain SPs that are always based in CG lately if you realised. The two B10TL SPs (9822L, 9830M), 5053R, 8348X. AFAIK, those 4 are always on Tamp svcs after they moved the Tamp svcs over to CG.

SBS 9631X SG

There's actually a whole set of lots in BNDEP reserved & always filled with the S-shift buses from the Tampines svcs on weekdays. haha. it's macham all the svcs, can see Sv 10, 23, 31, 65, & the sometimes Tamp feeders' S-shift buses all parked there in the same cluster during off-peak.

Actually, i don't think any rational S-shift BC would park his bus all the way back at CG if he's going to collect the bus a few hours later again right? Since he can park at BN also and it's more accessible~
