  Seriously the depots are nearly running out of spaces and yet SMRT still go and extend the lifespans of these buses...I hope by doing so, SMRT will in turn go and lay up those not extended, then send them to scrap much earlier...

  Don't forget the 15 Volgren O405s... I think SMRT will refurbish them soon, but without giving them lifespan extension (since they are leaving in 2016 and 2017)

  I feel that they will get refurbished for lifespan extension as per what SMRT said in the annual report for 2011...

  970 part reflected on SGWiki for a while liao... For 700, you mean they used to park at the bus park and now taken over by 970?

  They should be extended by atleast 1 year, given AMDEP being so greedy having so many citaros.

  You might want to double check again for 6660G. If you're saying that it's a week-long observation, AFAIK 6660G has been on a few other svcs on weekdays in the past 2 weeks. Just double-check again yeah? Cheers.

  SBS8708R 
  (AM SP)  (Training)
  
  Spotted this morning 0920hrs along Upp Serangoon Rd turning into Upp Paya Lebar Rd, while with Training Bus EDS details and more importantly, 2x 'L-plate' holders on the rear of the bus (1 on each side above the taillights) 

  Not sure if this bus still belongs to AMDEP, but I'm quite sure this switch only happened in the past week. Because I still spotted 8708R cameoing on Sv 70 on 03 Sep. 
  
  And interestingly, AMDEP has a particular TRG Mk4 in 1988U..and its siblings have recently went MIA from the roads. Hmm.

  I spotted 8620J today too but I'm not sure if 6767H was on 8620J's timings because i spotted it mid-day instead of the usual AM Peak timing. 

  And, idk what is 8708R replacing, or maybe it's an addition to the TRG fleet, or it might be under HG too.

  So SMRT should go quickly refurbish the Volgren O405s before it's too late (like only one year to deregistration)... Many of them are cui already.
