Originally posted by SMB42P:Today had the chance to spot a number of 188 buses at around 10-11am. NOTE that i have already removed the split buses but towards the end of the spotting, some buses im not sure if they are split or AP. Coz i didnt recognise the drivers/did not see the drivers.
The sequence is as follows:
SMB201Y >> TIB898J (AP06) >> TIB899G >> TIB1087B >> TIB1082P (AP09) >> TIB1101T >> TIB1203H >> SMB117H.
Subsequently, SMB200A, TIB549S and SMB224G were the ones in order but im not sure if there were any which were on AP. And im not sure if i missed any bus between SMB117H and SMB200A, just as I missed the 188S111 bus.
Another interesting note is that TIB1082P is actually before TIB1087B when i spotted it going towards cck (reach cck int for TIB1082P about 1005am). After that, TIB1087B is the front bus towards HBF after 188S111.
SMB200A has been spamming 188 lately, with SMB201Y, but i have no idea what slot is SMB200A appearing on.
SMB201Y recently have been covering TIB560H i believe and it seems so too, on 188AMPM05.
based on your spottings, i believe 117H is operating on 188AMPM02, covering 547Y.
It is usually like that. but i'm not quite sure why is it like that.
on a side note, the rather sticky 188 perms TIB547Y TIB554B have been cameoing around quite a lot lately.
I always saw the 141x buses on 700 lately, All from KJDEP, i saw 200A+ another MAN on 188 at 9pm, slot after 1203H.
SBS8976H
(BRBP 154 BNDEP SP)On 63 today (17/1/2014). Emergency pullover, pure transfer or 154 becoming partial BNDEP/SLBP?
Heard from my BC fren who is a SL 154 driver, he said that this year 154 will be trf to BN for the BR buses. I mentioned it last time. Is becos of the time taken to travel from BR to eunos int is time consuming. thus 63 and 94 alr made the move, so now 154 is making its move to shift its BR duties to BN control.

I rmb 1323Y on 188 just now. It was between 1203H and 200A. 547Y or 554B slot IIRC

this 188 deployment is getting messier.
700 also messy on KJDEP side, SMB1414,1416, kept appearing on 700
Originally posted by TIB 585L:700 also messy on KJDEP side, SMB1414,1416, kept appearing on 700
Speaking of 700, i think 190 also. for both WL and KJ side. WL side 514, 515 and 543 have been cameoing while on KJ side, at least 628 and 634 have been cameoing..should be the 14XX MAN also..at least 1408-1411 are all spotted on 190 these few days..
960 got at least 3 MANs with new Livery everyday. 3020H,3018R+ 1 more

high chances is pull over
Originally posted by SBS2615P:high chances is pull over
Not pull over. Pull over then take from 94
Guess is operation transfer
Originally posted by SBS2615P:SBST seldom practice pull over from other depot unless its like Amdep with Brbp,Bbdep with Arbp and Bndep with Cgbphigh chances is pull over
The most easiest way is to spot if there is any BN buses running on 154 starting from today, or if 8976H is still running on 154 too. If yes, then it means that BR duty has been trf to BN. Imagine to have off svc S shift BR buses that end shift at BNL int and have to travel from AYE to CTE to bradell or even PIE thru toa payoh to bradell it is really a hassle. Rather they travel all the way back to bedok via AYE, MCE, ECP or PIE straight wouldnt it be better?

SMB117H is on 188AP01 (TIB1203H) today, between TIB1082P (188AP09) and TIB772M (188AP04). TIB554B was on 188AP06 again, between TIB772M (188AP04) and SMB200A...

Observe more bah..today super alot of MAN on 188..i am starting to suspect 188 getting fleet upgrade or even turning WAB soon (i hope not and by right 188 shouldnt be WAB soon but SMRT may give surprises)

188 have majority bendies leh, if it turn WAB, it become like 969
Originally posted by TIB 585L:188 have majority bendies leh, if it turn WAB, it become like 969
thats why. i wouldnt want 188 to turn WAB due to its demand especially weekday peak and during school dismissal time. user 23ispolo mentioned that 117H is on 1203H slot today. 891C on 180 instead today.
From SBS8533C:
SBS8192C
(SLBP 174/174e BBDEP SP)
On 5 today (18/1/2014).
SBS8208S
(SLBP 240 BBDEP SP)
On 272 today (18/1/2014).
Is 248M,108J,109G,133K on 985 today?
I wonder why they transfer the 3 985 MANs to AMDEP
