65M 174M operates on every weekend nights.
NR5 operates as at NR1 and NR7

NR1, NR5 and NR7 operates daily. Passenger loads are very low and 19 or 21 seaters Bus Plus buses are used.

As for weekends, loads get reasonably higher and regular 12m buses are used.

For eves of public holidays, all of the NR services uses Bendies.

actually i find that if you compare loads on weekends, it is always NR1 that is higher than the rest.. probably cos it started 9 months earlier and it goes to more places..? usually all the seats are filled (30-40 pax) with maybe 1 or 2 standing by the time it leaves Scotts Rd..

i was surprised this year when no Bendies appeared during Christmas Eve.. they came out in full force on New Year's Eve though.. and Chinese New Year Eve's arrangement was not-here-not-there..

They are very messy. For NR1 I only see TIBS O405s and Busplus minibuses, have yet to see a O405G.
