Correct! sv16 striders were from BNDEP, but only SBS1896B, later then went to sv36 nw with sv518 strength.
SBS2595M sv93
SBS2596K sv123
SBS2597H sv196
SBS2598E sv156
SBS2599C sv196
For sv195 striders, it was swopped for SBS831G,SBS878K, and 3 more B10Ms from sv196, SBS2595M to SBS2599C went to sv196 before being broken up to the respective sv nw. SBS2597H went from sv196 to sv147 then bac to sv196.
For sv16 now, the cameos are SBS2646A [ex sv196], SBS2673X, SBS2674T. Other than tt only when sv16 under BNDEP strength, there were occasional cameos from sv8,sv23,sv81 fleet.

So 2595-2599 are BBDEP buses now? Does this depot also have Mk IV DMs as well?
