SMRT Redeployment from 23 March 2008

This is totally rubbish. It will just screw things up and making it worse.

Oceane SG

Possible, since it is currently a service 75 permer and service 75 is outgoing whereas service 852 is incoming. Based on AMDEP and KJDEP (before 2004) deployment patterns for service 852, I assume that service 852 will be getting majority Scanias once WLDEP takes over .

Btw TIB674M was last perm on service 852 under AMDEP in 2000, before it got transferred to WLDEP

They may dump Striders and ELBOs on 852. =.=

I hope 171 gets to retain full Mercedes fleet.

I'm rather worried that 859's fleet will entirely shift over... will be missing those ex-811 permers like 1237K 1238H and 1241Y... especially that Mercedes badge. =(

woodlands and cck int can be used for overnight parking..cant they?

Actually is can, but if SMRT don't want to make use of these 2 int to cut cost, then there's nothing that we can do... Let them waste more fuel and then later come and demand for fare increase again... =.=

Now i know what this powerful businesswoman can do for all of us here... =.= Well done!

Suspected to be out TIB496K, TIB497H, TIB505T, TIB576M, TIB577K, TIB756K TIB757H TIB772M (TBC)

Service 852 (WLDEP) CSS178K, CSS182Y, CSS187J, TIB373G, TIB1254K, TIB840A
(Mainly Nissan UD OAC fleets, 6 more buses not accounted for)
* Wonder how the regular commuters of service 852 going to react when the UK Lances kanna replaced with the old Nissan fleets

Service 859 (WLDEP) TIB1041H
(Rest not accounted for)

Actually not really gonna be surprising for 852... because everyday will have UD (AMDEP SP) cameos one... but to have perm UDs...

Feeling OK-OK for 171. At least it gets some L113s and not UDs.

985 all koped Lances from 852...

I do hope the rest of 859's new fleet is taken from WLDEP and not the current bendies... let's hope. =)

TIB1224Y SG

Lance on 985 for the win!

Wah 171 Scanias... :D Quite a dream come true again for a gap of 8 years? I haven't seen before yet lols...

TIB1018B SG

171 will not kana Nissans for sure one, but surprising that WLDEP give 171 Scanias instead of Mercs

UK Dennis Lances expected to be on 985 after 852 goes to WLDEP, haha! Based on my assumptions

Then 852 going to be like another 178

852 roped in all the 178 UDs... so I suppose 178's fleet will be "upgraded" then...

Service 852 under AMDEP also had many Merc cameos though it is a full Lance fleet. Not as bad as service 853 which has many Nissan UD cameos.

However seems like WLDEP is going to "downgrade" service 852 into a majority Nissan UD fleet once again when it take over duties from AMDEP.

Those days in 1999 when 852 was under partial KJDEP/WLDEP, WLDEP simply deployed a lot of NAC buses (Nissan U31 SCNs, Elbo Scanias) on 852. KJDEP was better though, it had DAFs. Things improved for the better when WLDEP gave 852 to AMDEP in Dec 1999, more AC buses were introduced to 852, especially when the new UK Lances came in.

TIB373G, TIB1254K, CSS178K, CSS182Y, CSS187J all were cameos on 187.

178 still unaffected haha. Most probably 187 will get lesser Nissan UD cameos a day

Hmm I suppose WLDEP will give 852 lousy buses then. =D

Oh... I often mix up 178 and 187 especially since their service numbers look alike and they both terminate at Boon Lay...

187 should be upgraded. =)

Service 980 in the past also, WLDEP give 980 majority Nissan UD fleet. Those days before Sengkang came under SBS. Service 980 became full AMDEP after Sengkang came under SBS.

When 980 came under partial WLDEP again in 2001, things were not so bad. It had majority Scania fleet. Had bendies and Mercs cameos too.

Once in 2006, 980 kanna full CAC Nissan UDs cameo fleets from WLDEP again. That was when CSS189D-CSS192T transferred to SMRT from CSS. After some time Scanias went back to service 980, those Nissans end up on service 187 instead.

If this anti_nissan_u31 user going to face service 852 daily I think he/she going to KPKB even more than compared to service 980...

Now I'm only worried for 859. I hope the AMDEP 859 bendies can remain in AMDEP. =)

Confirmed:-

Service 75 will be getting majority DAF fleets from service 985 (TIB694E, TIB707C, TIB708A, TIB709Y, TIB712L, TIB713J, TIB714G, TIB715B, TIB720M). Will have a few Merc fleets too (TIB513U, TIB786Z, TIB807Y)
Service 700 and 970 will be getting Merc fleets under KJDEP.
Service 61 and 173 will be getting Merc fleets under WLDEP.
Service 859 will have 3 perm Scanias so far (TIB650G, TIB657M, TIB661A)

Seems like Nissan UDs will stop spamming on service 187 after they go perm on service 852. Furthermore CSS185P and CSS192T are now on non user lay up status.

Service 852's confirm fleets as of 23/03/2008:-
