We had this discussion a few years back and more or less decided on 170. Laughing

swee_heng SG

Ya precisely , maybe because the demand wasn't good thats why. It only exitsted for 21months!

Hi Tamago,

The pictures are very nice. Well done. Prince Edward Terminal and today's Shenton Way Terminal are located at different places. The former was located at Prince Edward Link while the latter is at Palmer Road, which is 1 junction further down. Prince Edward Terminal was where you would alight to get to Finger Pier, the place to catch a ferry (to Indonesia, I think) before it was moved to World Trade Centre. Services from Prince Edward were re-located to Shenton Way.

The demand wasn't good part was an excuse by TIBS I guess. Actually it was quite silly of them to withdraw 989. Kind of legendary

^tamago^ SG

I see. Thanks! Laughing Embarassed

Don't forget... the withdrawal of 989 and amendment of E506 was quite near...
near to the opening of CGA MRT STN that is....
but 506 got amended between CGA and BDK for quite a few times....

tintinspartan SG

Remembered in 1997 that there were SBS Taxis? Am I right or wrong?

^tamago^ SG

I believe they have all merged into Citycab in 1994.

tintinspartan SG

Any pics of them on internet now?

Oceane SG

Last time there wasn't any SMRT logos on the emergency exit ramps... now got liao.

Platform 1 was renamed to Platform A after the conversion of the naming of lines and stations, and Platform 2 to Platform B.

BTW, where's the source of these photos? I also want to go and see. Laughing
