Which routes still have Leyland Olympian 3x serving them?

  They are becoming a rare sight on the roads nowadays.

  
  97 and 133 are a couple of services which I see them fairly regularly.

  Once in a while, I see a LO plying 186, 70, 166, 25 and 502.

  Last weekend, I also saw an LO each on 143 and 197, the first time in a very long time. Not sure if they are just cameos.

  Which other services still have LO3x plying the routes?

  The Leyland Olympians will be going to be de-registered with effect from 7 June 2012 together with VO2X. As the 31xx comes to a corner.

  SBS9168S and SBS9023B will definitely be preserved in a way from this year onwards.

  97 still have quite a lot of Leylands.

  502 has a handful. Just saw one outside Suntec Conventional Hall about 2030hrs.

  They are retiring so early this june?

  Some of them still look new with new paint coats. 

  I hope their deregistration could be delayed.  They are the last of the brand.

  What about svc 25?

  I used to see 2 of them together at bedok interchange in the morning a few months back.

  If y wan catch the leylands, go MBS the best, there no need wait oso can catch leylands easily. For example, for wat I noe, 97 still hv 40% of its fleet with leylands. MBS SBST svc all hv leylands running them currently. Good place to catch them.

  I hope these bus de-registrations are further delayed as no action is taken.

  They are always the last of the brand before going to VO3X.

  I like svc 97.  From the 90s till now, it always has a good number of leyland models.

  LO2x and LO3x.

  Plus it has an expressway route.

  alamak , all cameos only :(

  How do you define cameos anyway? e.g. for 25, i see 2 of them every morning and sometimes, at night also.  It looks like they are a permanant on the route.

  Svc 97 will be better if it still ends at Hougang Central. It also has Volvo Olympians batch 1 and 2 back then
