carbikebus SG Heard that 859 will be handed over to WLDEP 961 will be given 4 duties to AMDEP,Hopefully not! 985 will be given 3 duties to AMDEP. 852 Unconfirm whether it will given KJDEP minor responsibility
corebooster SG den will it still travel on de same route? 985 MUZ REMAIN ON SAME ROUTE or ill FAINT if i take 154 to work everyday, SO FREAKING FAR!
^tamago^ SG same route definitely, but different kind of buses deployed on the route. like this kind:
vivienlee SG Filnally sv 859 have chance to get back Volgren and box bendies (batch 1), plus scanias BUT... No more Lances on 859 Dennis Lance buses on sv 961 and 985 DAF and Hino buses on sv 852 once again Sv 980 better remain where it is, no more CAC nissans to be added
^tamago^ SG UK Lances might be x-ferred from 852 to 961 and 985. and maybe WLDEP will have to give KJDEP or AMDEP some buses.
TIB1018B SG Service 859 kanna transferred between AMDEP/WLDEP a few times liao. Apr 1999 - service 859 was introduced, full WLDEP control. Aug 1999 - transferred to full AMDEP control due to Tibs handover. Jan 2001 - transferred to full WLDEP control when service 851 came under AMDEP. Sep 2004 - transferred to full AMDEP control , maybe for preparation of new service 950 by WLDEP?? ??? - and yet back to full WLDEP control again. Maybe TIB762S and TIB821E will go to services 961 or 985 if really depot transfer, then those bendies become AMDEP SP
Oceane SG Maybe if 961 and 985 is allowed AMDEP duties, and 852 is also allowed KJDEP duties then some DAFs go to 852, then the extra Lances go to 961 and 985.
off_service SG I think service 859 is the smallest fleet to be "ping ponged" around without much affecting the operations as it's a short intertown trunk service.
TIB1049L SG TIB1049L was AMDEP 859 I just couldn't imagine 961 kena Lance. Scania Strider and ELBO seems bad enough already for long trips. Hopefully AMDEP give 961 Merz perms or else I really no eye to see
TIB1171R SG Ridiculous? I dont think so. Given the location of Geylang Lorong 1 Terminal itself which is nearer to AMDEP than WLDEP/KJDEP, and the rising-like-nobody's-business oil prices, having some trips under AMDEP would serve to partly reduce costs and increase efficiency.
^tamago^ SG I don't think he meant that, if not he would not have mentioned that he doesn't mind 985 being partially amdep since they're all have to off-service to geylang lor 1 anyway. I only worry if they schedule an off-service trip from CCK Int to amdep. That will defeat the purpose. But true that a long trip on 961 Lance can be a torture.
off_service SG I think Lance on 961 could be beneficial -- it has a large standing area. But I think it would be good if 961 is dual depot controlled -- the service uses alot of buses if it's single depot control.
TIB1049L SG Have to agree. They have to free up some buses in WLDEP. The on;y box merz SP in WLDEP seems to be TIB453J
tintinspartan SG 859 transfered back to WLDEP!!!!! But who knows, maybe they'll give a UD perm on 859
