If you have to come back from Changi Cargo and take the EWL, what would you suggest?
Take 9 to Simei, 19 to Tampines or 89 to Pasir Ris?
I am tempted to recommend my friend to take 9 to Simei as he travels to Bugis and has already saved the Pasir Ris - Simei train commute.
In the morning, I would suggest him to alight at Tampines as buses would normally leave on time from interchange rather than stops at Simei or Pasir Ris MRT.
Anyone has better suggestion to offer?
FYI - He is going for a 2 month training assignment in logistics at Changi Cargo.

taking 9 to simei and train to bugis or taking 19 to tampines is about the same, but i would recomend taking 19 to tampines.

with same assumptions there
1. Why do rigids appear on 812 rarely, while 811 has perm rigids? Does it have to do with the loadings?
2. Are AMDEP 67 and AMDEP 969 bendies interchangable? I've seen TIB1077E on 67 many times...
Why SBS Transit have their own BC Control Machine right above the Official Machine while SMRT doesn't?
I know this is off-topic, but why don't u guys hv a Cameo Spotting per 3mth? Since Oct'13 is coming to a close, might as well extend it to Nov in terms of threads.

I can only answer question 2. The answer is no. All AMDEP bendies are interchangeable with each other. They parked at the same depot thus the starter can just switch the bus. That why everyday 969 got cameo esp from AM side coz they take buses from 67,851,854. Yishun Feeders on 969. Dont be surprised if u see 973A or 974Y on 969 or TIB996J on 67 or TIB1135X on 812. I have personally seen all 67 bendies or rigids did 969 and even the former AMDEP 169. Been spotting buses for 2 years so i understand the process well enough.

Because 811 is a WAB svc...? Up till now 388S is the one and only WAB bendy around.. Even if trf to 811 also will use NL323Fs as they need to meet a certain requirement. Hope this helps.

There's one famous "Michael Jackson' with SMRT's Busplus.

Wanna ask?Are there any full day 167 AMDEP buses running on Saturdays and Sundays?In my observation they run only on split or TQ duties even during Weekdays.
Wrong topic

972 can be full WLDEP or full KJDEP.
