Service 190 in the 1980s used Albion Vikings and Volvo B57s.

Somewhere in 1989-1990, the Volvo MK2s (WA Body) were also newly introduced to this service. Albion Vikings were then phased out.

MB0405 OACs were then introduced to service 190 when it was converted to a PAC service in 1992.

Volvo MK3s later replaced the MB0405s in 1993. Double Deckers LA2x were also introduced due to popular demand, followed by LO3x.

In 1994-1995, VO2x and VO3x replaced the Leyland buses. Some Volvo MK4s were also introduced.

In 1998, service 190 was converted to a FAC service, hence VO2x and MK2s were removed from this service.

For those days, 190 was operated with a mixture of MK3s, Striders and VO3x. Not sure whether MK2 CAC buses were used too ?? Rolling Eyes

Service 190 was then handed over to Tibs in 1999. Tibs used MB0405 and MB0405Gs from then.

Apex-LW'21 SG

Sv 300, 301 & 302 used Volvo B57s at start.

TIB1018B SG

5 - MB0305s, LAs, MK3 AC (based on HG dep and BB dep Rolling Eyes )
75 and 176 - MK2 NAC and MK3 AC
184 - MK3s
179 - MK3s, somehow replaced by MB0405 later (due to depot transfer ??)
177, 343 and 344 - MK2 or B57 ??

Btw, I dun think 185 and 190 used MB0405s ?? I remember tat MB0405s were withdrawn from Bt Panjang fleets when MK3s came in.

188 dun use any LAs or MK2s, it used only MB0405s and LO2x b4 Tibs takeover.

300 did use VO2x b4 Tibs takeover, dunno abt 307.

189 did use some MK2s too.

106 only use MB0405s and LO3x from AMK dep, did see some MK3 cameos too.

172 and 175 used only MB0405s (NAC/CAC/OAC).

67 got different variants of single deck Volvo ACs, also had Scania N113s OAC (it was also based from BN dep too).

61 got different variants of Volvo Buses, also did see MB0405 cameos too.

muziq bus SG

im not sure bout 190...
but 185 had OAC and NAC MB0405 in the early 90s...

back when MK3s have yet to be intro....
after that, the LAs entered the scene...but it was short-lived as 185 became FAC... n o4o5 was used...after that...it was the MK3s... n soon, the Striders...

after that, the handover... with DAFs and Hinos...

kengkia SG

opened?...when...then all other current cck svc oso from bp right?

kengkia SG

and oso mk2 NAC

muziq bus SG

Nopes. Not all. 188 is definitely not. 179 - nopes. 185 - nopes as well right?

Volvo Olympian SG

Deleted

TIB1018B SG

Nope...

However I remembered during the end 1992 rationalisation, service 75 was shortened to Bt Panjang with the introduction on new service 179 (not the current 179 from Boon Lay). Service 190 was then extended to CCK and route amended to ply along BKE/PIE instead of Bt Timah Rd.

Volvo Olympian SG

CCK Int i think open in the 1990's

Back then CCK Int have Sv 75 , 179 , 188 , 185, SS7 , 300 , 301 , 302 and 303

then in 1992 , Sv 190 was extended to CCK Int and 75 was shorten to BP Ter

then in 1996 , SS7 was withdrawn due to WDL Extension MRT and 925 was extend to CCK i think?

then in 1997 , 301 and 303 merge to become Townlink 307 and 927 was intro

then in 1999 , Sv 179 was withdrawn due to BPLRT and TIBS tookover the whole Service in CCK

Correct me if i'm wrong.

thanks

TIB1018B SG

Does service 301 use Albion Vikings too ??? Rolling Eyes

Volvo Olympian SG

I don't think so.

TIB1018B SG

I think CCK opened in 1987-1988 if I am not wrong Rolling Eyes

There was a service 179 in the 1980s that ply along CCK and New Bridge Rd. Albion Vikings were used. This 179 was later withdrawn somewhere in 1990.

Another FAC service 179 was later introduced in 1992-1993 to ply along Fajar Rd from CCK. Volvo MK3s were used at first, however replaced by MB0405s before the Tibs takeover in 1995.

Yes, 925 was extended to CCK, only on weekdays and Sat. Sun and Public Hols it ply along Sungei Buloh

iveco SG

190 nvr had Merc OF1417s. Those NZMB-bodied buses serving on 190 were Volvo B57s.

iveco SG

Svc 61 ever had Merc O305s from HGDEP.

muziq bus SG

I thought 188 was introduced only in the year 2000? CCK to WTC
