Also remember that AMK also have LA DDs on 269. After LA phased out, LO2X was used for only a while before returning to full fleet MBO405.

Cheers.

there were only 3 DDs on 269 fleet, 5614, 5617, 5623.. most probably these buses were acquired from AMDEP 106 fleet.

think 22 did have B57 before right? Correct me if I'm wrong.

Cheers.

Don't think so.

Only remembered Mercedes OF1417s Hawke, and Leyland Atlanteans, before the Mercedes Benz O405s and Leyland Olympians 3 axles.

I think you might have mistaken it for the Mercedes Benz OF1417 with New Zealand Bus bodies, which I believed a few might have cameoed on some AMK trunk routes.

Ya might be, since NZ OF1417 and B57 bodies look similar.

SBS Longest bus in Asia, Volvo B10M MKIV Articulated Bus, rego SBS988Y.

Took it only once on ex-290. At that point of time 290 also have SBS999U in their fleet. When 290 was withdrawn, both articulated buses were allocated to 18 before sold to NZ/ Aust.

TIB1234T SG

Should let the SBS Mercs bendy sell it to TIBS to try using it.

Volvo Olympian SG

nope, SBS998Y came in 1996 after TIB838H while SBS999U came in 1997.

One Harmonius Blend SG

Artic buses are a headache as far as logistics are concerned for SBST.

Even the parking lot is a problem.

Heck, they never even had proper parking lots at Tampines Int throughout their stay here. Just the side of the road suffices.
