SMB32T SG

I believe that he spotted it during the IMF period in 2006.
Some of the AMDEP Mercs were posted to HGDEP, whereas the SLBP Mercs were posted to BBDEP.

There was one period in 1999-2001 when some 0405s were under HGDEP. And in Sept 2004 there were also some 0405s in HGDEP too when service 100 came under HGDEP controlled. All the 0405s were eventually transferred out.

Still remembered last time when the MRT started service between Yio Chu Kang and Toa Payoh, PWD constructed a bus terminal at Yio Chu Kang. Service 76 was then introduced with the former SABS 0303 (or 0309?) registered as SBS1 to SBS8 as part of its fleet of buses.

Took joyrides in them between my home along Ang Mo Kio Ave 3 to my primary school along Ang Mo Kio Ave 9.

Also remembered taking the first generation LA on Service 132, 165 and 166 that pass by my place to town and other places together with my mother............

I remember those times when 103 had Mk 2s. Their suspensions were the best.

Scania CRBs on 109 also.

Best times were the LOs on 106 before transferring them over to TIBS. Then bendies parking at S'goon Int. Best :D

I remember taking Mercs on my beloved 156 and 147. I'll never forget them(:

TIB1083L SG

The O305s on 61, their red rims and powerful and smooth acceleration.

the DM NAC O405s on 174, when raining can make people nauseaus as people close the windows and make the bus stuffy.

the jerky gear changing from the LO2X

Trans Island's Hinos...

One Harmonius Blend SG

Got OAC mercz perm last time: TIB470J (x-fered from 187) before downgraded to almost UD fleets

that was before 06' right? when did 178 downgrade to almost all UD fleets?

oh, the 3 perms, 590X,591T and 593M were out by around 1999 on 178, but after the above perms, were they other perms that did this service before?
