from personal observation,
NR2 leaves Marina Centre first
5N and 8N buses park at NBR while awaiting departure time
NR3 starts trip oposite G-MAX (Zouk)
There is a 1N/162M shift where it comes out of AMDEP at 10:10 pm
and does one round of Sv 162M. Then, off service to Marina Centre
and do 3 1N trips before off service back depot.
Usually, Nightrider for SMRT only deploy Mercs and only Mercs.
No Dennis or DAF or Scania if i could recall, except for a time
when a Volgren Lance did NR1 on New Year's Eve of 2005.
Sorry for OT: Anyway, yes.
you can only have one free transfer for NR within 45 minutes. It
works also for regular services too during day-time. Riding NR is
better then NiteOwl since it has more value for money if doing
multiple NR trips.
NR2 leaves Marina Centre first because of its timesheet. If you
look at all the Owls' schedule they do not depart at the same time
but rather at a staggered timing.
Sometimes 5N 8N park at Marina Centre. If they do not, they
would simply arrive 5min before time, wait a while then start or
just start trip.
Of the 4 1N buses, 3 do 162M for 1 trip before doing 1N. The
last one does 1N only.
All the 4 2N buses do a half trip on S65 before doing 2N.

from Jurong East.
3 6N buses do half trip of 132 before doing 6N, 2 from
Hougang, 1 from Bt Merah. The 4th bus do 1 full trip from Hougang
before doing 6N, does 6N last bus.
All 4 7N buses do half trip of 12 before doing 7N, 3 from
Chinatown, 1 from Pasir Ris.
