  This can be counted as one of the longest. Any buses that perm on a service for 6 years & above I count it as longest serving bus.

  SBS921T is never kicked out from 113, it is currently the solo non-WAB perm.

  SBS885P did not serve 115 since newly introduced. It started perming only in 2008 when the MK2s were in a midst of retiring. Note that there was also a period of time when NAC MK2s did 115.

  SBS1835C should be de-registered in 2007 if I'm not wrong since the last MK2 was de-registered on 5th April 2008. When was the date SBS1835C registered?

  It looks like you are referring to longest buses, not longest serving buses.
