45G at Sembawang again, along with 46D. 45G driver training?

45G was doing training at SBW today, one SL teaching another 2 SLs how to operate the manual ramp as well as pointing out different parts of the engine / tanks to them.

They later drove off at around 5.05pm, using Sv980 route.

SMB66X SG

53H, 56A and 67T on 925 today.

Not for 882. The load doesn't justify the need.

The SL declared breakdown after consulting with OCC. Raiser was raised beyond normal height and the bus was bouncing badly even under slow speed.

Perm crossover to 859 or just one of those 'bus happened to be free that time' thing?

AM53 scheduled x-over to 859 in the morning.

Dep Yishun Int 650

Sembawang Vista 715

Arr Sembawang Int 725

Today is the only chance you get to see OC doing this x-over. Next week, TIB908P will do the slot.

TIB537B SG

A.K.A. the uncontrollable spread of OC500LEs to every SMRT bus route.

Just like the Scania virus.....lol. But at least got difference, the OC500LE "virus" is more comfortable and nicer to accept!

Finalised depot allocation to last 2 batches of OC500LE:

SMB 53H (KJDEP)
SMB 54E (KJDEP)
SMB 55C (KJDEP)
SMB 56A (KJDEP)
SMB 57Y (KJDEP)
SMB 58U (KJDEP)
SMB 59S (KJDEP)
SMB 60L (KJDEP)
SMB 61J (KJDEP)
SMB 62G (KJDEP)
SMB 63D (AMDEP)
SMB 64B (AMDEP)
SMB 65Z (KJDEP)
SMB 66X (KJDEP)
SMB 67T (KJDEP)

1st batch OC500LE total depot intake:
AMDEP: 37 units
WLDEP: 0 units
KJDEP: 30 units

KJDEP take in another 13 buses. So what buses it kick out? or they just increase the number of buses doing overnight parking? The laid up KJDEP nissans are still parking at one corner of KJDEP. I dun think there are extra space at KJDEP. even before the OCs come in, they are already parking along the road side at night time.

Oceane SG

It came as a surprise to me also. Till date KJ has only kicked out 7 buses and it took in 30 new ones. The numbers don't tally... unless they are transferring buses this weekend.

Am I dreaming?

Interception_7 SG

I did cycled there once, it was with a cycling group i met. Saw some buses parked outside. Didnt manage to get the model or rego, was deep into cycling back then.

Add on the ex-975 CSS rego Nissan UDs that were being laid up too, around 6-7 fleets.

Most probably some KJDEP MB0405s would be going over to WLDEP soon. Don't forget that the ELBOs would also be replaced too sooner or later other than the Nissan UDs.

Cool, thanks.

So now all the 67 Merc OC500LEs fleets which SMRT announced are already registered and put into service? Are there any more new fleets coming in (rego SMB68R onwards)?

SMB66X SG

Today any OCs on 925 or 969 or even 169?
