Which bus service are u referring too?
Quite a number of them. I remembered that 12, 14, 166 were the few that I seen. Suddenly I saw these services with the old Leyland Atlanteans those DM bodies and Alexander L type bodied ones.

I still remember NAC DDs like 0305s and LO2x still appear on service 166 just after it was officially converted to FAC in Jun 1998

NAC 0405s with their rear ad frame/holders and blue seats with white panelled blowers above your heads...

That was in the 90s before SBST's feeder bus services started getting AC fleets.265 and all other AMK feeders/Townlinks became FAC fleet somewhere in 2002 after all the 0405s were converted CAC (though NAC MK2s and LAs ever did on some AMK feeders for a short while).
Somehow in 2005, NAC Scania N113CRBs were dumped only to Townlink 265's route in AMK. Most probably due to more AC buses needed during that period when SBST introduced several new services in Bishan...

Do I post here to ask about subsidy for the fare hike or start a new thread here to ask?

This thread is to clarify that SBS can actually raise the bus fares and yet let Hougang/Sengkang residents take those trashy MKIIIs.
But if you wanna ask here, go ahead.
