Now noticed, how come Insp Date is when the bus by then is dereg?

Apex-LW'21 SG

We will missed the 1st Scania N113CRB bus, SBS 3573U very soon...
It was based at BRAM when it first arrived and put on revenue service in 1989.

^tamago^ SG

i think it's system-generated date, 1 year from previous inspection. doesn't matter, since it goes away once u de-reg the bus.

Volvo Olympian SG

And oso i think first on 145 back in 1989? the NAC CRB

Apex-LW'21 SG

yeah, you are right. There is a pics of a Scania on 145 on the SBH btw.
I can only tell you that it did on services like 149 & 155 before, not so easy to find out though.

Volvo Olympian SG

Oh what is the route of the old service 149? Is it from Toa Payoh to somewhere.....

I remember SBS3573U was on sv 410G in 1993/1994 wif the replacement of volvo B57s/NZB

iveco SG

BRAM (and AMDEP) Scanias (NAC) were initially brought in to replace the Guy Victories. Seen them on 58, 124, 137, 139, 143, 145, 147, 149, 152 & 155. In 1995, there was a mass movement of Scanias to BNDEP (where majority of them have always been based) to replace the 48** & 49** B57s on BN feeders. These B57s spent their last days in BBDEP serving on CLE and BBT feeder routes until the Mk IIs took over in March 1996.

The OAC Scanias first served on Svcs 3 & 66, if I'm not wrong.

alex_cai92 SG

if im not wrong…it was once perm on my darling service 292…b4 292 got a fleet reduction from 4 buses to 3 buses…den aft tat 3573 was SP…

TIB1018B SG

Don't forget that Bedok Nth also have partial fleet of NAC Scanias and also full fleets of OAC Scanias in 1989-1990. These buses were first introduced on services 14, 16 and 390 by Bedok Nth side if I am not wrong. The Scanias were bought in to replace the Leyland Victorys/MB OF1413s from Bradell as well as the Albion Vikings from Bedok Nth depot.

For your other info, AMK/Jurong bought in the MB0405 buses to replace the MB OF1413s whereas Bt Batok/Hougang bought in Volvo MK2 buses to replace the Albion Vikings.
