some of those VO3 on 132 like 9500 9529 9548 9549 i think is "life achievement award" holders. I think they had been there since their birth. 9478 is also a lao jiao on 51.

Those Mercs on 24 and 130 served 17-18 years on the same services before they got replaced by the Scanias.
Think 465, 466, 469 served longer on 73 than those on 24 & 130, as 73 only got EEV to replaced the Mercs, whereas 24 & 130 was replaced by Euro 4. Cheers.

SBS9802U on 28? since the day the bus was born
9484 9452 9509 and maybe 9608 came from its tampines - bedok route.. and they are still on 28 now except 9608.Originally posted by sinicker:28? 9484D..... wiki states BNDEP 196 but i can't remember when that was. i only remember took 9484 in 1998. and it's still with 28 now...
TIB481C - Perm 181/961 since the day 181 was converted PAC in 1995. Followed 181 from KJDEP to WLDEP, and eventually followed 961 down to AMDEP.
TIB665P - Perm 160/980 since 1996 (though it did 167 for some time). This bus always stick to 980 perm regardless of AMDEP or WLDEP controlled.
For 198,
SBS9445S, SBS9640U and SBS9641S have serves 198 since new in 1998 (SBS9445S) and late 2000 (SBS9640U & SBS9641S)
Before being redeployed SBS9372 have been serving 198 since new in 1995 until recently.
For 157,
SBS9055J have been on 157 since 1999. SBS9096R have been on 157 from 1996 until being scrapped early this year.
For 98,
SBS9082E have been on 98 since 1998 when 98 turns FAC. SBS9115U, also have been deployed on 98 in 1998, have a short stint as 30 in 2000 before being redeployed back to 98 not long after.
For 97,
SBS9105Z, SBS9139B, SBS9158X, SBS9175X have been on 97 since the late 1990s' and are still serving now.
Also not forgetting those SBS9020J/SBS9022D/SBS9023B/SBS9025X, some of the SBS930X/SBS931X series VO3X on 30, SBS9073G to SBS9076Z LO3x from 197, SBS9257T/SBS9258R on 99, SBS9011K from 143 etc which have been long on these services before being replaced by new buses.
BTW if I did not remember wrongly those LO2x from 154 (SBS7139P, SBS7156B etc) as well as 240 (SBS6932Y, SBS6951S etc) seems to have going through their entire lifespan without getting redeployed.
What is FAC? Faulty Air-Con?
For Service 166 (I think)...
