  Managed to board it, can confirm that it's still Voith.

  SMRT mixed up?

  Onboard SMB1538U (KJ 307) and i saw its record book (book number 1408). It was labelled as Woodlands Bus Park instead of Kranji Depot..for a moment i thought 307 went over to WLBP..

  Just curious, is there a slot on 182 that will do crossover to 252 or vice versa?

  Took 3630M on 179 today and based on the tickets i got from the machine, on 15/3/15, the bus did both 252 and 182. The ticket for 252 was printed at 1731hrs, while 182 was printed at 1955hrs, 2039hrs and 2040hrs.

  Actually Boon Lay service like messy leh..this service will crossover to other service, and no perm bus known...

  Anyone can advise?
