Which depot was responsible for route 77 deployment when it was first introduced as a Marina Ctr- Farrer Rd loop service? I know BBDEP took over after it was extended over to BBT Interchange.

Maybe it's Ayer Rajah Bus Park...

Adding on TIB888M and TIB889K. That was in Jul 1999 just after service 190 was handed over to Tibs. Bendies from AMDEP 82 were then transferred over to KJDEP 190, which left service 82 with no bendies until it was handed back to SBS in Aug 1999. -
Which part of 1995 did 167 get their duty cuts from AMDEP? Still not sure about this because I saw TIB542K listed as ex-KJ 167 perm before.

Yes, no bendies in AMDEP for the time being until later that year. I still remember TIB892A put to service 859 for bendy trial run under AMDEP.In early 2000, AMDEP started getting a handful of bendies once again when the Hispano Batch 2s were brought into service.

If I am not wrong it was in Mar 1996 when service 167 got some duty transfers from AMDEP to KJDEP, with those newly registeted TIB8xx series 0405s that became perm 167. -

Should be either BBDEP or ARBP. Volvo MK3s mainly did service 77 at that time. -

Yeah, later the Mark IV DM and Striders as well as the DM3500. -

And I thought it was earlier around february where TIB798P was registered?

The first deployed 1996 Hispano O405s to 167 were TIB798P - TIB799L, TIB808U - TIB810L, TIB821E & TIB822C. Back then, majorities of the buses came from KJDEP. -

These 3 above mentioned came in only after some fleet reshufflement by KJDEP in Jul 1996, replaced TIB799L TIB808U TIB809S.TIB609C was initially with service 160 after WL MRT rationalisation, after which TIB808U from 167 went over to 160 instead. TIB799L and TIB809S went over to 960.

There were also the earlier TIB49x - TIB50x 0405s which also perm service 167 too since the day 167 became PAC. I believed that they were AMDEP controlled. -

For your first question, yes. They are KJ 167 perms.For your second question, it should be in late January, because of the introduction of 858 on 4th February.
