Lay-up and refurbishment of Volvo B10M Mk IV (Part 4)
-
SBS921T alr scrapped?
Anyway i overheard 2 BCs on 113 commenting that the Volvos are going to be "Killed" so they need to sit on more of this particular bus model. Seems that they know the deregristration schedule and details and which bus will replace them.. hmm
-
btw spotted 1 DM inside HGDEP with left side brake light cover missing should be waiting to scrap liao bah there r also another DM Park over the other side of this bus .
-
I don't think any of the Striders that's due tmr are out on the roads today?
1935Y today is replaced by 2622T on Sv 359. -
Anyway, I remembered someone posted some time earlier that he spotted a crashed Mk4 DM3500 parked in BNDEP?
That bus has a matt-stickered alike livery though. So there aren't many in BNDEP left that's still matt-stickered, or with a paintjob similar to that shade. 2730P? 2783L?The others are still running well in CGBP/BNDEP iirc in past weeks.

2783L got ad & spotted on 87 last thur

That means, that bus parked in BNDEP is really from somewhere else? Hmm.

Yeah it was me who spotted that DM3500 2 weeks ago..Is that bus still at bndep? Thats why i also was wandering cuz that DM3500's livery looked quite faded from far especially the purple portion..The sbst logo at the doorside also looked like the enlarged version..Actually looks more like a HGDEP bus leh judging from it's livery cuz like what you said,bndep also nt much DM3500s which looks like that nw..And somemore spotted 2730P on svc tdy also..hmm weird leh wonder which bus this is..

Yeah i replied to you back then on page 8 of this topic..Its definitely nt 2809Y cuz like i said earlier,the DM3500 i spotted has it's whole front damaged unlike 2809Y which only the driver side is damaged..And somemore its nt under bndep also..

Yeah user SMB1333T replied to me back in page 8 that 2785G has been back to svc when i doubted whether the DM3500 i spotted at bndep could be it anot..but even then also it dosen't make sense leh cuz 2785G is under HGDEP..

Yeap, that bus is still in BNDEP as of a few days ago. From the looks of things, might be from somewhere else instead of BNDEP though. Could be towed from other depots to BNDEP for the spare parts. Although that itself is kinda weird.

They were already scrapped before being declared officially deregistered...but I am surprised that 975M 1963R 1964M 1969A 1972P 1979X are still not deregistered at the same time.

So it's only possible that the DM3500 was from somewhere else and towed there. But what is the purpose of this?
