I think what SBS9818A is talking about is the timeframe which you last took the O305 on Service 410. He suggested that the O305s was phased out in late-2001...

SBS9818A SG

Sv. 410 back in 1999/2000 had a DD fleet of 2 Atlanteans, 2 O305s and 2 2-axle LOs.

In fact, the atleantean was on 90 on the entire week just mths before its departure.

SBS9818A SG

Likewise for 2-axle LOs.

I got one bus in mind during my childhood time,The Mercedes which when the driver pull up the "stick" to open/close the doors,It has those "tis" sound.
Way back in the 80's which is manual transmission if i'm correct.

No, the LO 2x was introduced in late 1999.

SBS9818A SG

LO2X was introduced into Singapore in 1986. Wonder where you got 1999 from.

th1988 SG

Sorry, it should mean on the service 90. I apologise for this.

SBS9818A SG

In fact Sv. 90 had 2-axle LOs in 1998, if I remember correctly.

th1988 SG

If I’m not wrong, 90 started to have NDDs when 82 had ADDs and 107 had VO 2x. In fact, it was the same time I think.

SBS9818A SG

Sv. 82 had 3-axle VOs ever since it was returned to SBST from TIBS.

th1988 SG

Then you are wrong, I stayed along Upp Serangoon before moving to TPY.

When SBS took over, MK2 and MK3 were deployed. They started a SWT till Sengkang during afternoon peak.

In fact, there were commuters asked for ADDs, but it was rejected as Punggol Road low lying trees were not cleared yet.

ADDs were only deployed on the same day VO 2x went to 107.
