no.. the exit was now being used as normal.. except for that burnt area, which was covered up by canvas.. those sv45/265/268 layover buses seem to park furth...

Yeap. 9163 and 9174 gone just like that. Used to take them often. Just, saddening.

I really hope 9188J's not gone. It just had its a/c duct refurbed like in november or october last year.

Guys, do note that the incident site is already covered up in canvas and as of 3 pm today, there are construction workers at the scene. The fire took place near the Inspection Centre.

already reported at 2.45pm...

Thought 9188 was the very first LO to be refurbished?

Not really sure about that, but if it was too, burnt down, then the fire would have killed all of sv 25's perm LOs, in a single blaze. By the way 7300P cameoed on 25 today.

so.. is there a list of all the buses damaged in the fire?

9188 has been giving a lot of problems lately. its ducts were refurbished back in 2007 when it was still perm 88.

9188J was refurbished many years ago. And was like the test-bed for the rest of the LOs.

Not sure about its status ever since it was xferred out of 88 though.

9888... gone.

I lost the will to live.

THIS HAS GOT TO BE SOME KIND OF CORPORATE SABOTAGE!

SMRT? LOL

Ngweitong SG

so SBS9888Y confirm going to be deregistered liao? when?

SBS2692R SG

SMRT 'lives' next door. Haha! But still, i strongly believe it's an electrical fault, or maybe an oil leak. But whatever it is, everything's gone.

So we've gotta keep in mind that, regardless of long lifespan or not, prioritising mercs first instead of b9s or whatsoever; we have to cherish what we have in front of us. (:

9188's perm 25 ever since. Havent seen it running around before this incident. And oh yes i remember, 9188J got towed out of Amk Int once. I think just early last month.

i thinking how the fire still can occur even though when the bus engine was switched off.

Agree.

like I've mentioned before, for a fire to start, the 3 things needed are:

and 3.30am is actually the start of the busiest time for the people inside, from despatchers preparing duties, starters checking on which buses to replace, to parking attendants shifting buses to the right lots to cleaners...

if people want to create arson, then this is not a right timing for them to do so..
