1171R should be 969S107, Formerly done by 508K. 969S108 is 1077E.One thing that puzzles me is that 969S107 crossing over to 812 ceased a long time ago, I'm n...

i'd rather 852 be full AMDEP controlled.

I have this strong feeling that they don't need so many starters from AMDEP, 3 starters from YI and 2 from WLDEP, Should be enough for 2 to start at YI coming directly from WLDEP.

642-644-565-636-670 will start from BB

671-672-118-147-148 will start from YI but 671 and 672 will come from WLDEP directly. This is how I personally feel.

TIB783G SG

852 is better off AMDEP/KJDEP controlled instead.

I feel that only 671 and 672 will start at YI coming directly from WLDEP, If not no point to have 8 starters at BB.

Then how to confirm which SMRT bus is which perm?

Use your eyes and brains can alr.

About 17 months back WLDEP made a mess out of 852 and now 2 duties taken back. I hope this time round they really can deploy decent fleets and not make a mess out of it.

By the way 666L is seen on it's former block which is 8, But if 664S or 667J joins in then the sequence has to shift.

From what I notice WLDEP always like to dump old buses and also buses with poor conditions on service 852.

Way back in 1998-99, 852 was under partial KJDEP/WLDEP then. I remembered WLDEP side dumped almost full fleet NAC buses especially the Nissan U31SCNs (which is now scrapped already). Things turned much better when AMDEP took over 852's duties from WLDEP from Dec 1999 onwards.

And in March 2008 same thing recurred again when WLDEP took over 852's duties from AMDEP. Majority of the fleets were downgraded to those ex-CSS Nissan UDs especially the CAC ones which were in a very bad condition.

True to that,There is no need for so many starters at a certain int,Some of the bus can downroute to start shift

Merczrox SG

I want 852 to be WLDEP/KJDEP controlled.

Go and write in to SMRT la instead of posting here.See what they will reply to u.

SMRT AMDEP deployment style somewhat follows like SBST, But just doesn't match.

SMRT WLDEP deployment style for the SE/YI ones are OK but the WL ones are just absolute thrash, just look at 656R alone after it went missing from 178 about 4 months I still don't see a replacement, Ditto for 969M.

Scanias are already good enough. If they still want to deploy thrashy fleets then they are looking for trouble.

SMB2E perm 178 mah? but never saw on 178

TIB783G SG

SMB2E perm 178 mah? but never saw on 178

No. SMB2E is not perm. For 4 months straight I don't see a fixed bus on the 5th block.

TIB 585L SG

SMB2E perm 178 mah? but never saw on 178

Saw it somewhere last yr when it was 1st redeployed,then i saw it cameo on 961,858 for S-shift then MIA,seen parked in WLDEP everytime i pass there

SMRT AMDEP deployment style somewhat follows like SBST, But just doesn't match.

Sembawang ones like 981 are still using those old Nissan buses. There was also once when 980 got all the trash CAC Nissan UDs deployed but eventually all were gone.

Yishun services like 856, 857 and 859 are still quite ok with the 0405s.

Woodlands side I got to agree with u especially for services 178 and 187. And I remember once 178 suddenly had a full Nissan UD fleet... Whereas services like 960, 961, 963 and now 966 are always pampered with new buses nowdays.

SMB189A SG

SMB2E SP?

SBS8676Z SG

No. SMB2E is not perm. For 4 months straight I don't see a fixed bus on the 5th block.

I will be rather surprised if SMB2E is really a service 178 perm

Ever since last year, Personally I feel 178 is starting to get better with O4s somewhat matches the SE standard of dispatch but WLDEP always have a bad habit of changing buses midway even though it is full day, Like last year I saw 781L on the 11th block but later switched to 651D even though 781 doesn't have problems.

TIB 585L SG

SMB2E SP?

Sgwiki state SP but i have never seen tht bus on any service for many months,It nvr does TRG oso,Idk wad the purpose of sending 2E come WLDEP and 969M to KJDEP wich eventually turn into TRG -.-

TIB783G SG

I will be rather surprised if SMB2E is really a service 178 perm

I still have my reservations to be honest. The dispatcher doesn't seem to be lenient on the 5th block itself. Everytime I keep seeing scanias but recently have improved slightly. The 5th block sometimes I see mercz doing full day.

SMB189A SG

SMB2E tranfer to other depot?

TIB 585L SG

SMB2E tranfer to other depot?

No i stil saw it on WLDEP the 2nd floor parking space.

SMB189A SG

LAYUP?

TIB 585L SG

why SMB2E not on the road!!

LAYUP?

IDK? Nobody spotted it on the road including myself for months.Last time i saw it was on xmas eve on WLDEP same spot park,Ad still on-the Yifon mushroom......EDS off
