I remembered SBS239E SBS240A SBS242U SBS243S SBS244P SBS245L SBS246J SBS247G SBS400E went over to service 165 when it became a PAC service in Feb 1993. After which Volvo MK3s went into service 67's fleet.

Think the BBDEP MB0405s were being xferred over to AMDEP when Volvo MK3s came into SBS in 1993?

wad abt BNDEP's merz?

SMB32T SG

wad abt BNDEP's merz?

Not sure which Mercs from BNDEP ever did service 67 in the past. It was until 1995 when BNDEP took in new Volvo MK4s and gave up all the OAC Mercs to AMDEP, after which service 67 Volvo MK4 fleets under BNDEP.

I had an ST article dated 2 Mar 1985, regarding about TIBS Service 167 getting 2 air-con buses as part of the trial. The 2 air-con buses refers to TIB279X and TIB280R, on which the buses were first placed on Service 167.

jayh272416 SG

167 168 LOL

SBS8533C SG

for CSS -- the first air-con bus trial was CSS 8.

But for a record, the first air-conditioned service was SBS 168 from Ang Mo Kio - Orchard Rd (Loop). That was wayback to 1984 when 8 of the 15 ex-SABS buses were acquired by SBS and thus placed on 168.

TIB657M SG

Think the BBDEP MB0405s were being xferred over to AMDEP when Volvo MK3s came into SBS in 1993?

Still had Merczs in BBDEP (mostly former NAC which permed 92 before) in 1999/2000, and those PA merczs which permed 711/712/713.

SBS8533C SG

For Service 175 between the period of 1989-90, this service was cutback to Bukit Batok and loops at Tuas Rd on 6 Nov 1989.

When Boon Lay Int opened on 1 Jul 1990 and the EWL line to Boon Lay opened on 6 Jul 1990, this service was amended to loop at Jurong West St 91 instead of Tuas Rd on 7 Jul 1990.

PLS NOTE: This service was NEVER withdrawn during this period.

SBS8533C SG

For service 165.

When Boon Lay Int opened on 1 Jul 1990, this service temporary plies from Ang Mo Kio - Boon Lay until 6 Jul 1990, the openign of the Boon Lay MRT Station.

On 7 Jul 1990, service 165 was made to call at Clementi Int thereafter.

When did the BBDEP Mercs leave for JRBP (later relocated to SLBP)?

sbst275 SG

honestly 165 could have been extended to Boon Lay. So ppl now working at Boon Lay Way dun have to take 99 -> MRT -> feeder

vicamour SG

Nice pictures of the old TIBS livery buses, reminds me of the good old TIBS.

SBS8533C, care to share some history about Bukit Merah services???

Is Bishan Braddell or Hougang controlled??? I remembered some Volvo B57s serving the old service 57 and 58.

Bishan services fell under TPDEP (now known as BRBP) and AMDEP. Both depts do have Volvo B57s in the past. Also note that sv 55 used to be dual controlled (AMDEP + BNDEP) as well.

Hmm, I've alredy mentioned the bt merah setvices, refer to page 18 of this thread.

I believe part of the 165 route from the Clementi to Boon Lay stretch duplicates the MRT.

SMB32T SG

If I remembered correctly, TPDEP had Volvo B57s and Leyland Victories whereas AMDEP had Merc OF1417s (mainly Hawke bodied), both depots also had Merc OF1413s too. St Michael's, Toa Payoh and Bishan services came under TPDEP whereas AMK services and service 171 (before Tibs takeover) came under AMDEP.

but looking at now, it could be revived least say until CCL fully ops

AMK - Boon Lay

Only services 10, 165 and 196 were cutback to Clementi interchange when Jurong inerchange was shut down in 1990. The rest of the services were amended to serve at the new Boon Lay interchange. Believe that there were some integration within the JIS services too
