Thats the point he is making. 353 was a Bishan route from Sin Ming Terminal to Bishan St 31 (now Shunfu Rd). This was then absorbed into a new route, 57. Then 57 was amended to become Townlink 410, the first ever townlink, which really differs from what most people think of townlink services now (ie MUST pass through town centre).

But dun forget it's possible tat the decision of not to re-use 35X prefix for this case is probably over e diff interchange location.

Beside the Food Centre

if i not wrong was Blk 79

Last checked the foody centre under huge renovations.

Bus terminal parking spaces still exist.

reopened riao.

e parking bay now become head in parking bay

Speaking about 217 - that was when feeders fell into the 21x group, 210-218. However, for 217, it was the only living legacy of the 21x feeders with the original number retained despite the re-routing of the service to Serangoon Int until it was renumbered as 317.

I remembered 212 was for SP.

That 21X prefix was used for Changi Village, Marine Parade if I did remember.

343 - Bukit Panjang Bus Terminal >>> Petir Road (End)

Used to have such a crossover.

Sv 175 under SBST used to be a jumpbus service with zero-minute layover at Lim Chu Kang Terminal. Similar to how Sv 36 operates now.

sbst275 SG

Simply because 177's ops hrs is very short even till to tis day.

Even if given me I would plan it to do full day for feeder svs.

Good job

SBS woodlands depot house the SBS3xxx bsues.

Svc 170 uses 3xxx series indeed.

--story from fren

Svc 170 trips sometimes go into the depot to refuel.

Some even went to the workshop area to fix advertisements. imagine paxs still onbaord and the mechanics banging the bus side with hammers to fix a advertisement

fun fun fun

always a chance to visit the depot in such situations.

ZYX

back then Sv 170 freq was 15 mins.

Not really much ppl in and out of JB as like today. Rather it's Malaysian driving cars in to buy groceries.

n4l, ^tamago^, i think i might be wrong. in transitlink guide 1995(published 31 jan 1995), i saw 400, 401, 403, 405 and 410 there. may i ask you, were 400, 401 and 403 park services at that time (1995)?

Gus.chong SG

Can anyone tell the history of bus services in Bedok, Buona Vista, Marina Centre, Lor 1 Geylang, Shenton Way, Upp East Coast & Yio Chu Kang?

Remember to add in when the terminal/interchange opened, and the bus service and its amendments.

Read my quotes in bold.

After that somewhere in 2000 or 2001 they bulid an additonal 2 bus stops just a few km away from the Bedok Green Sec bus stop... after that in 2004 or 2005 it was demolish. correct me if i am wrong
