sbs&tibs SG

My first ride on Bendy was SBS998Y. I went to the back of the seat.
My first ride on a DD was on 166. I was a still a small boy at that time so I had to obey my mother and had to seat on the lower deck.

Ok, I remembered.

My first ride was on a bendy bus Service 960. My mother disliked to sit at the back part during that time as she would feel giddy. So, as i was a small kid, I must obey her and seat in front.

My first ride on a SUPERBUS was on 190. Every weekend, I would go out with my 2 aunts and my mother during that time. My aunt wasn't married back then.I was the only kid in my maternal side of the family. They all like me soooooo much Razz Now, I have 12 cousins. We would always seat at the front of 190 Superbus. As for my first ride on a DD, I could not remember, but I think it was on 190 before it was extended to terminate at CCK.

Your memory was so good when you were a small kid? All I remember is me tripping on the steps of a B57!

Did 190 extend to CCK from Bt Panjang before or after Superbus was introduced?

Yusry SG

Before Superbus was introduced.

190 once terminated at BUKIT PANJANG?? Confused

190 was an original NBR-Bt Panjang Terminal Service. It was extended
to Choa Chu Kang a few years after Choa Chu Kang Interchange opened.
