Suspected Redeployments (Part 2)

Suspect: SBS8619P ARBP 123 ARBP 48

SBS 9631X SG

Suspect either

SBS8662M

(BNDEP 8) (BNDEP 69)

or

(BNDEP 8) (BNDEP 8/69*)

It was spotted on 69 in the morning, idk about afternoon & evening

8662M was on Sv 69 yesterday (26 Nov) during PM Peak as well. I don't think its 8/69. Seems more like the arrangement that I think weekdays perm Sv 69, weekends do Sv 8. Cause I've spotted it on Sv 8 lately only on weekends, weekdays its on Sv 69. Hmm.

SBS 9631X SG

sorry what does IIRC mean? Yes there was 410 perm stix on coinbox when it was with 410

IIRC = if i recall correctly. Anyway yeah, no more perm stix on that bus at all, esp the coinbox. 8777R also didn't have a perm stix when it first came out from 55 to SP, same thing happened for 8799C as well.

So I think 8538P highly likely went out to SP instead of 53. I think there's one missing Sv 53 permer in the workshop though. 6010H & 8885L missing these few days from what I see.

if im not wrong i saw 8885 on either 53 or 54 2 weeks ago. so do you know which bus replacing 8483 slot?

TIB 585L SG

SMB321J

(WLDEP 920) to (WLDEP 969)

Its on 969 frequently

Maybe 143G replace 321J on 920

SMB189A SG

SMB321J

(WLDEP 920) to (WLDEP 969)

Its on 969 frequently

Maybe 143G replace 321J on 920

143G not replacing 321J

TIB 585L SG

143G not replacing 321J

Then hw come 321J on 969 frequently? If 321J come 969, 322G takes it duty?

SMB189A SG

I confirm tmr

TIB 585L SG

I confirm tmr

Btw 321J is on full day 969 today not split

carbikebus SG

Maybe some split shift buses exchange with full day one cause the latter need to go preventive maintenance during am break?

SBS6301T SG

when is AM break?

bus555 SG

Yeah that why

SBS2656X SG

I suspect that the crossover duty for 325 has changed to svc 100/325*...
Many svc 100 buses doing crossover on 325 few times aft more citaros permed... Never seen SBS964U and SBS2666S on 325 crossover trips already.

SBS7123J SG

I wonder if SBS6199Y have been out of 195 as this bus seems to be running around lately.

SBS 9631X SG

Yeah that why

But remember that time 'SBS2615P' posted that Sv 69 still has 4 non-WAB slots? And someone edited 9849K back into Sv 69, which according to 'SBS2615P', yes that's true. But on Wiki, it's as though 9849K directly replaces the de-reg 1932E, which I don't think it's true as of now. Cause I think they are replacing 1932E with a SD instead leh?

And furthermore, if you look at the fleet on wiki now, there's only 3 non-WABs? But Sv 69 has 4 non-WAB slots still. So even if 8603J out 8662M in, it's still only 3 non-WABs. Even if you assume 9849K replaces 1932E, it's still 3 non-WABs too. See the confusion?

SBS 9631X SG

Suspect,

SBS8243P
(HGDEP SP HGDEP 27)

SBS8246G
(HGDEP 100 HGDEP 27)

8246G confirmed back to HG 27. New black-number-on-white-background Sv 27 perm stix on A-pillar of BC cabin. Very clearly pasted over the previous one.

And it's definitely not the previous Sv 27 perm stix it had when it was perm 27 when new new years ago. The previous 27 stix IIRC was a white-number-on-black-background, not this current one. The one it has now, is a new Sv 27 perm stix.

SBS8676Z SG

SBS8149D
(HGDEP SP HGDEP 100)

SBS8137M
(HGDEP SP HGDEP 62)

SBS8676Z SG

8246G confirmed back to HG 27. New black-number-on-white-background Sv 27 perm stix on A-pillar of BC cabin. Very clearly pasted over the previous one.

Got the feeling that 8243P is back on 27 as well.

6226C and 6227A went back to spare.

HGDEP seems to be deploying back K230UBs on 27, 34 and 151. Whereas the Citaros go to 159 and 325.

I think the Citaros are going to the feeders or something. Basically the services with reasonable demand during off-peak to justify the higher number of seats on the Citaros..

Quite obvious 27 & 34 can't do with alot of Citaros. One or two still possible. But minority fleet won't make it in the long run. Cause the BCs are used to squeezing in pax fast into the wider aisle in the majority KUB fleet, then if you force them to drive the 1 or 2 Citaros suay suay during peak hours, you can imagine their frustrations in trying to squeeze people into the Citaro.

That's probably why 53 can manage to do with Citaros till now. Cause the majority Citaro fleet is just nice for the BCs to adapt. KUBs come, just load pax faster lor. Don't have to adapt too much cause they're more used to squeezing in people on the Citaros instead anyway. You get my point?

SBS6305H SG

Wasn't this what I've been trying to imply over the past couple of posts with users '8501U', '6301T' & '6078M'? HAHA.

And I spotted 8538P on Sv 53 as well today. I can even tell you that it's the 1153 bus at Blk 210 PSR Dr 1 towards CGA for the past couple of days & weeks. Stuck on that timing for ages already.

When was there a missing bus in the 1st place? 8164J like what 'SBS 6078 M' said? I'm not doubting his words, but it seems to me that it's weird that I still spot 8164J on its usual timings? So I don't think that bus's out yet. Why I say so too?

8538P I checked today. There's no perm stix on the bus at all. None on the coinbox, BC cabin, window or elsewhere. None. 8538P seems more like SP now instead. Cause IIRC it did have a 410 perm stix a few months ago when it did the 5060U x-over from 410 to 53 during peak hours.

Sorry.

SBS 9631X SG

Sorry.

It's okay. Sorry if I was too straightforward, just trying to bring my point across about the 8164J situation cause it was very confusing. Hope you understand.

8538P is more like SP now though. Not perm 53. It's replacing some bus that's in the workshop, that bus I don't know which one is it. Although I've not seen 8885L for some time. 8164J is still on Sv 53, 6010H is back too. Unless it's 6011E which went MIA these few days..
