CSS185P CSS205R CSS207K TIB365E TIB368Y TIB369U TIB370P TIB375B TIB1255H
9 Nissan Diesel U31RCN -
still got a few more Nissan as training buses...
-
Just to add on, TIB376Z TIB836M TIB1248D (which were laid-up at a later batches) are still on lay-up status and not officially deregistered yet.
TIB1255H is currently the one and only CAC Nissan from WLDEP left.
-
what about TIB 368Y, 370P 375B and TIB 1255H when are they going to be de-registered/lay-up?

They are still running on the roads as usual, can catch them on service 178
. All these buses will go off once their lifespan ends around next year, unless SMRT decided to lay them up before the lifespan expiry date. -
oh boy..not that i hate seeing them on the roads, but i never see those Nissan buses rotating around though..
-
Meanwhile the remaining Nissan UDs can still be spotted running on services like 178, 853, 855 and 981. Sometimes will appear on services 187 and 852 as well. The CAC Elbo Scanias runs mainly on services 187 and 852, there may have chances to spot them on other services within WLDEP.
Good luck catching them if u can
-
i want to see them not doing just other services like 187 and 852, just wanted them to 'spread out more' as in cameoing on other services such as 965 etc
nowadays its quite rare to see 965 on a Scania though, so seeing a nissan on 858,965 etc would be rare

WL Nissans only deployed on Services 178, 187, 852, 981.
AM Nissans only deployed on 853, 855 and 980.
unless on the really last minute and there's really no buses, then you'll see weird things.
otherwise only these few will get Nissans.

What about scanias? is it 'common' to see them on 965,858,969?

Service 980 hardly got any Nissan cameos from AMDEP ever since 3 AMDEP Nissan UDs got laid up last Dec and were taken out of service. TIB365E that did regular cameo on service 980 ended up as perm service 853 instead, replacing TIB1256E.Services 853 and 855 yes, due to CSS205R and CSS207K that does overnight parking at YIBP.

Don't forget about the OAC Scania Striders, they are still running around and seeing them on WLDEP services (except service 950) are very common.It is only the CAC Scania ELBOs that SMRT is intending to take them off the roads.

They cameo once in a while... -

i wish to see more Scanias rotating to other services, instead of 178 though. but well

Scanias rotate around 187, 852 and 961.If very lucky, you can also see them on 169, 858, 965 and 969 too.

Mercs Volgren on 178 is still uncommon for past few weeks as theres no perm on 178. Cameo on 178 mostly is TIB968R. -

how do you know 968R does 178 whenever a volgren comes on? i know no permer volgren for 178, but one is enough -

Well, by looking at the past posts of cameos of last few weeks*, you will see that TIB968R is the Volgren Mercs that did 178 the most, unlike TIB959S, TIB960L and others, which did only 1 or 2 times or none.* Note that is PAST FEW WEEKS, not YEARS.

968R is on sv 962 today...

Scanias basically can be deployed on any service. its just that they prefer deploying ELBOs on the less treasured routes like the BB routes under WL, 178, 187, 852 etc.
