  You should have written ''IS IT back on rev svc already'' instead of ''It is''. It might cause a misunderstanding. AFAIK, this bus is not back on rev svc.

  KJDEP to NBR/MC/Shenton Way is really2 far, I wonder how long does it take for 190/106/700/970 to catch first bus timing. I believe all 106/190 shld go back to partial AMDEP like last time. KJDEP to HBF also quite far to the point i cant figure out the route 188 takes to HBF from KJDEP for 1st bus.

  User Oceane informed that on certain days WLDEP buses start at Bedok wich is so tiring for the BCs. It is almost similar for 190 case already.

  Sundays I think.Then if Wldep starts at Bedok what the use of partial with Amdep?167 case I can understand cause only 6 Amdep duties

  That precisely the point. WLDEP to Bedok itself is that far and BCs can just get lost if not familliar then delay the first bus timing from Bedok. I wonder what SMRT is thinking when making 854 partial WLDEP at the 1st place when 851/855/970 are better choices

  Dun worry bro when Weyna complete they will definitely major control Svc like 851,852,855..

  MANdy A24 is likely success and Superlion very successful~ so SMRT maybe buy 150 more MANdy~

  Yeah. But 150 too less. Must buy 300 or 400 MAN A24(MANdy) maybe they can buy SOLARIS buses. Btw, I don't see SMRT changes seats for the 13xxs that I see.

  If man buses need to go to Malaysia for spare parts, can they enter as off svc or the spare parts need to be brought to SG?

  Why didn't SMRT add more handgrips to the MANs like they did for the OCs and Citaros
