  On 964, BSEP upgrade MANA22 slot to DD, SMRT downgraded bendy slot to MANA22...

  SMRT is just fooling people!! Don't you guys think so... or do you feel it is okay to show improvement under BSEP and then downgrade from their side (silently).

  CHEATS!!

  Don't over rely on sgwiki. Info there is not 100% accurate.

  SMRT reduced capacity on sv 187... hahahaha... we have been talking about 187 getting more DDs/bendies... and here they do it again just like they did to 172.

  So 4 bendies + 1 BSEP DD to now 3 bendies + 1 BSEP DD.

  What the HELL are they doing?

  On other end, SBST has surplus DDs that there are DDs in excess for some services now. 

  Such big contrasts!

  
  As far as i know, there were no capacity changes to 172...there are still 4 bendies in the fleet, just that the bendies duty codes have changed...

  Now the 4 bendies are on:

  172S102 -- 1085G
  172S103 -- 1030P
  172S104 -- suspected to be TIB1086D, upgraded from rigid....
  172S105 -- suspected to be TIB1156K

  Whereas the slot that got downgraded instead was 172S107, now done by TIB715D.

  960 gets 2 bendy --> 2 DD conversion (5027B, 5031M)

  966 gets 2 SD --> 2 DD conversion (5034E, 5035C)

  Both from SMRT side.

  Since when? SMB1556S is replacing the retired TIB773K. SMRT did not even downgrade the fleet with a bendy to a rigid at all.

  What if the bendy was replaced by a DD?

  I don't think so. The BSEP MANA22 was replaced by DD early on. Def not on 964. 187 also most days only 1 Enviro. Sometimes you see 2.

  If yes... that is great news.. i also feel it is disaster to downgrade bendy slot. If replaced by DD... then okay :-)

  969 hopefully is a DD

  966AP15 is a MAN A22 slot - probably an Alexander Dennis Enviro500 slot by now.
  
  969AP07 is another MAN A22 slot - SMB1532K.

  looks like it's becoming a trend to introduce DDs on express services.. Good that SBST knows to increase the levels of comfort especially when you are paying the price for the express svcs
