Redeployments (Part 10)

TIB1049L SG

Now seeing a 178 on a mercz is like seeing an 858 on a Scania though

Not so rare actually. Merc on 178 is getting more and more common, even with Volgren Mercs

i can agree more common, but you must be lucky enough

Quite recently SBS9888Y posted TIB659H on 858.

Seems like a lot of Hispano OACs from 700 are going over to WLDEP.

Anybody spotted any new buses on 700 today?

As i said, most of the 700 KJ (ex-WL) O405 will likely go to WL.

Hey people! Here are the re-deployments seen as of today and yesterday.

TIB446E
(KJDEP 700 WLDEP SP)
On 178 today.

TIB471G
(KJDEP 700 WLDEP SP)
On 178 yesterday.

TIB474Z
(KJDEP 700 WLDEP SP)
On 178 today.

TIB477R
(KJDEP 176 WLDEP SP)
On 961 today.

It's noted that the ex-WLs from KJ are coming back to WLDEP. :) But, somehow, it's targeted at expired advert buses, indicating Biscuits World and Nikon D700 is expiring. But, that does not explain for 474Z.

Anyway, something interesting. On Saturday, NONE of the perm buses from former WLDEP did 700, except 740E. But today, 556X, 546A, 728S, 433S and 468S are seen on 700. 442R and 738M on 75, 469P and 443M are on 184. 727U and 472D are missing. 809S is presumed to be on 188 tomorow.

TIB764L remains property of 700/700A. Seen today on 700A. =)

Not really. This time so many from KJDEP 700 were taken away. =X

sorry i meant 700

Tibs/SMRT always like to practice mainly Merc 0405 fleets on one service whereas another service gets secondary model buses like DAF/Hino/Scania/Lance (depending on depot). But having a Merc 0405 cameo on a non-Merc bus service (eg. 178, 852, 853, 975, 980...just to name a few) is very common. Same goes for Merc-based services getting non-Merc cameos.

Unless it is a bendy bus spotted on bus services that hardly have bendy deployments then it is considered very rare.

sorry i meant 700

So meaning service 700 will be getting some perm OC500LEs?

I don't think it is the case of expired ads, unlike SBST's practice. I still remember TIB576M that got the Panadol Flumax ad when it was still on perm AMDEP 171, after which it got redeployed to service 854 and in less than 2 weeks got transferred again to WLDEP. Till now the ad is still there.

yeah otherwise pump OCs into another service and use those merc to put on 700.

SBS2615P SG

SBS9071L
(BRBP 157 BRBP 8)

SBS9046K
(BRBP 8 BRBP 157)

SBS9845X
(BRBP SP BRBP 8)

SBS9005D
(BRBP 8 BRBP SP)

today 9005D's on 8

Yongjunzer SG

by right, sbs9587r shouild had followed sbs9845x path to brbp . much fairer, or they should have put it into slbp. then more good.

TIB770T SG

carbikebus SG

yeah otherwise pump OCs into another service and use those merc to put on 700.

S700 need more bendies not OC500LEs IMHO

TIB770T SG

How come tib1105h not in service?

TIB1105H^{^} (Non-User Lay Up Status till 22 Aug 2010; Former WLDEP 187)
(as seen in sgwiki)

TIB1232Z SG

S700 need more bendies not OC500LEs IMHO

Agree. S700 morning peak loading from BPJ is terribly huge, buses are packed just about after 2/3 stops from interchange.
