I went down this afternoon.. Saw a whole lot of 90s Bus Guides. Got a glimpse of the 1979/1980 Bus Guide written in Chinese. I couldnt find the 80s bus guide. I think someone might have taken it...

Want to know why? There's always inconsiderate people who just grabbed every available bus guides on the shelf, and then take a long time to return, without giving a thought that other people might want to read them too.

For information, Coastal Rd is the present Changi Coast Rd, Changi Village Rd is formerly called Upp Changi Rd. Up to 1980s, Upp Changi Rd is one long road beginning from New Upp Changi Rd in Bedok and ends at Netheravon Rd. One part of the road was cut off and is presently the compound of runway 1 of Changi Airport.

Did service 395 has any bus stops along Coastal Rd back then?

^tamago^ SG

Not too sure.. jus quoting from the guide.. it did not state the bus stops, but if it’s listed without denoted as express sectors, there should be bus stops.. probably Coastal Road was longer than Changi Coast Rd, so the Services had the chance of using Coastal Rd, but that sector was renamed Nicoll Dr and Changi Coast Rd shortened later..

tranquilice SG

Coastal Rd = Changi Coast Rd. Coastal Rd stretch from Tanah Merah flyover (ECP) to the entrance of the cargo complex.
Nicoll Dr is not re-named from Coastal Rd as evident from other 39x services.

Svc 390 once terminated at Holland Rd Fringe Car Park in the mid 1980s.. more notes consult post on SERVICE 390 on page 1..

It terminated at Dempsey Rd, the basic terminal structure is still there but is now a URA bus park.
