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.
So the KJ fleet in Jul '96 were TIB542K TIB600B TIB609C TIB798P TIB810L TIB821E TIB822C? (after 799L 808U and 809S left?)
And who were the remaining 8 fleets that permed 167 in AMDEP?
No wonder I thought TIB542K TIB600B TIB609C were perms of 167 in 1995 which I find it strange because at that time it hasn't got duty cut yet thanks for the clarification.

It's TIB496K - TIB510C. All of them were indeed AMDEP controlled. -

Hey clone, your questions and lack of comprehension really sets you apart you know...
Which part of "until it was handed back to SBS" do you fail to grasp?
He was simply saying that there were no bendies until before SBS took sv82 back.

I don't know anything what you say, this sentence was totally confusing. Lack of comprehension represents simple sentences. You know very well, comprehensions are in full sentences.
I can assure you its in proper and complete english. -

Yes.I am not very sure TIB542K and TIB600B permed which service before that, it might be SP. After TIB799L and TIB809S left 167, it went to the newly introduced service 960.
TIB495M initially did 167 in 1996 after the swop, after which it was replaced with TIB600B somewhere in 1998.

What I mean is that all the bendies left service 82 during its final days under Tibs, just before 82 went back under SBS. -

Also to add on that 374D and 375B also permed service 167 before in 1995.Once the 79x-8xx 0405s came into 167 in early 1996, AMDEP side left only with 497H 499C 500G 502B 503Z 505T. All the remaining 0405s plus the 2 Nissan UDs left 167.

things went better 4 svc 82 once sbs took back ctrl in 1999, it was made fac on the 1st day of handover n subsequently double-decks were introduced.however situations made a turnback for after NEL rationalisation, route cutback to s'goon and double-decks were gone, another setback when 82 got NACs running again in 06'

TIB542K and TIB600B were not SPs before perming 167. I remember the two were perm on SS7 and 176 respectively.And I don't remember TIB495M doing 167 as a perm bus.

Which part of 1995? I never seen Nissan buses doing 167 before. When is the last time where Nissan buses do 167? -

August 1995. -

Due to drop in ridership after nel opened, furthermore cutback to become short haul svc. No point in sbst putting double-decks on tis svc. -

Services 81, 82 and 103 were among those services that were cutoff from CBD areas to terminate at Serangoon interchange in order to reduce duplication with the NEL. -

I suspect the buses from 82 went over to 107 and vice versa.

Yup, can say so. Service 107 then went under full HGDEP controlled and aslso upgraded to FAC fleet with VO3x. Before that service 107 under AMDEP had a number of NAC buses in its fleet.Noticed that after the NEL rationalisation in 2003, there was a massive transfer of VO2x from HGDEP/BNDEP/AMDEP to SLBP to replace the outgoing LO2x on the JIS services. Services like 153 and 165 were also upgraded to FAC with VO3x replacing VO2x.
