SBS2751D
(HGDEP SP HGDEP 159)
Two pieces of cut out 159 service guide pasted beside rego plate although bus is on 103 today...

Exactly what I was trying to say. Like, idk how they came up with the conclusion that bus is perm when AMDEP uses perm stix. Best part is, they dump that bus into the fleet page on Wiki, and then expect other people to find the bus that is out. ._.

Yeah. exactly what I was trying to mean earlier too. AMDEP has too few DD SPs now compared to its SD SPs in its fleet. And there are certain svcs that justify deploying the SP DDs out more often on them than other svcs (Sv 21, 72, 168 to name a few).
So it's not surprising if I see those SP DDs stuck on any AMDEP svc that has high DD demand, for weeks.

On a different note, Sv 21 is highly neglected by SBST. Only 14 DDs and a huge number of SDs for this service (13 SDs)... When this service actually should have been at least 18 DDs fleet out go the 27 buses.

they say they based on observation loh.. but like wat u say, amdep are usually based on perm sticker.. and those who edit sgwiki like to edit one part only and ignore other related parts.....
SBS1997T
HGDEP 325/161* HGDEP 325
Crossover slot never existed, and SBS1997T as well as other SDs has ceased to operate on 161 on weekends.

I notice that today HGDEP downgrade 3 service 161 slots back to non WAB single decks. Bad move once again.

Possibly 1994B and some perm striders are out. There are 3 extra buses now. Soon 159 may be almost full mark iv dm3500 fleet when the dm and striders are gone.

Tks ! btw i still saw 1994 on 159 ytd
btw anyone can confirm 6400R really perm 159 ? seem never see this bus doing on this svc at all but someone edit wiki perm 159 liao
lol... suddenly so many buses added to 159 now
Those buses were spotted with the 159 service guide cut out. Perhaps its like the same case as some other DM3500s (like SBS2833B, which had 3 of them), but stayed as spare until some other buses were transferred out of 159.
Maybe SBS6125K and SBS6197C are due to be transferred out once their ad contracts expire? Or perhaps some other buses are also due to be transferred out.
I'm currently confirming the fleet of 159, buses currently spotted are: SBS1967E, SBS1994B, SBS2636D, SBS2761A, SBS2772T, SBS2813J, SBS2833B, SBS6125K, SBS6197C.
SBS2745Y and SBS2751A (the new additions) are still spotted running around on other services, same case as the to be 159 permers a few months ago.

What the hell is wrong with HGDEP. It managed the crowds so well for the past few weeks.
HGDEP now maintaining and deploying buses like SLBP/BBDEP now.. Slack alr. It used to be the best.
Like SLBP - 179A underop..

Spotted the full fleet in the morning just now, here are the spotting details.
Total: 19 buses (does it have a reduced fleet during ITE holidays?)
Running 159 (14 buses): SBS1977B SBS1983H SBS1994B SBS2608K SBS2636D SBS2698A SBS2719Z SBS2761A SBS2772T SBS2785G SBS2813J SBS2833B SBS6197C SBS6304K
Running 159A (5 buses): SBS1967E SBS2642K SBS2793H SBS2809Y SBS6125K
SBS2719Z is using a 159B rear desto (with the B covered up), this should be the 159B bus.
Missing buses: SBS2733G SBS2745Y SBS2751D SBS2766L SBS2824C SBS6400R

If you look at the 3 depots you mentioned in your post, what do they have in common that just took place recently? Remember the mass swapping of KUBs for Sv 160 & 170?
IMO I think they are still trying to sort out the backends and all the leftover deployments & records from the movements of KUBs from their respective depots to BBDEP~ So I'm not too surprised if their efficiency in fleet deployments these few months are slacking off abit. Too busy with too much stuff to do.

Think it was SP in the first place. Didn't recall anyone ever mentioning 3748H had a Sv 56 perm stix..

Anyway, do you have any sources that can help me double-check if Sv 21 has a new non-WAB DD slot added recently or converted a WAB block to non-WAB?
Idk why that 'SBS9840J' user on Wiki keep repeatedly insisting that 9617M is perm AM 21 on Sgwiki even though I haven't seen any signs of the perm stix on 9617M lately. But I could do with some confirmation from other sourcees too to validate my stand that 9617M is still SP~

Sv 21 is kinda like Sv 12 in the past few years, having a few SDs in between the DDs' timings. At least the recent fleet adds are DDs, so it's not that bad imo.
From what I can see, think they're trying to split the load up during Peak Hours onto several buses instead of mass-loading onto a DD and then waiting super long for the next DD to come.

agree! i got feeling that 9617M Is still SP to take over any AMDEP DD Slot duty for those who went undergone mantiance or ads

3748H no perm stix at all when i go onboard sv.58 include today! all from my observations and right now is high chance since 58 got missing DD Slot
