Well idk how this will make a huge diff? Like i only see the new BCM buses gonna go across the casuseway only haha. Come to think of it, 950 actually received a lot of diff models to go to JB as compared to those in SBST?

950 got no choice.
160 & 170 got the older model in advance. Next replacement will be Mercedes-Benz O530 Citaro SBS-regged plates, not SG-regged plates.

Hmmm u sure? 160 & 170 up for Bukit Merah package, and it's too early to decide whether the Citaros will be SBS or SG regged plates. Let's wait till then to see how things go

Hopefully SBS-regged plates (2011 - 2015), with much redeployments in mind. Bear in mind that they may not use SG-regged plates, which is like me taking the Samsung Galaxy Note 4 instead of iPhone 7. So certain service can still regularly use SG-regged plates.
5741A A95 on svc 851 on 24/Jan.

Not enough SG plate Citaros to play around already..Worst reregistered SBS plate to SG
860 has only 13 buses operating in PM peak and not 19. Can anyone else confirm too?
AM could be more because of 860A?

PM is only 13 bro - 9 rigids, 2 bendies, 2 DDs.
Think 2 crossovers from other svc
...
Will be in Boon Lay and Yishun next week. My plan is to analyze 243G and 243W. and 860 again (my current hot favorite). I may also be in Punggol for one evening. Plan is to observe 3/83 from Punggol Interchange.
Cheers!
Btw some Canberra flats are already open with some residents living there already, which explains why 883 is getting heavy these days. You can analyze the bus svc if you like, but note that not all flats are occupied so maybe you can do it a few months later

No point doing 883 yet. The smallest HDB complex in Canberra called Eastbank has TOP and has some occupancy. By Q3, there will be 4 large BTO complexes opening up. Then 883 will need massive fleet add or will also be good to have DDs deployed on it by Q4 2017 as MRT is still away and if I am not wrong Canberra MRT will open only in 2019.
Finally. You understand what I was saying last year

My friend - don't be ARROGANT. No one disputes that Canberra needs a dedicated service. It is the TIMING of running empty buses for months.
After DTL3 you will say look 46 is also useful service. Yes it will be but some of these services were introduced way before its time.
Chill and don't make blanket statements like "finally you understand" when it is totally out of context.

Don't waste time on 243 G/W. It would be better if you analyse 192 and 193 instead as these will be the "hot topics" in the coming months. Furthermore, despite the amount of discussion on 192 and 193, no one analysed the loading on these bus services before. So, might as well you analysed them instead.
As a regular commuter on 243 G/W for the past 21 years, I can tell you, most people board/alight at Gek Poh Shopping Centre and Pioneer Mall area. The loading dropped slightly ever since Pioneer merged into Boon Lay... other than that, the frequency is awesome. night time frequency is just nice with the number of double decker buses deployed... ever since 258 was launched, 243G is nolonger a problem.... in short, actually, 243 G/W has nothing to talk about. Don't waste time on 243.
The problematic one is 193 and 181. Every time night time these bus services will have very long queues at Boon Lay Interchange...Because they removed 192.
nonetheless, 192 and 193 is a hot topic, as Tuas MRT is opening. People will be talking about it. So might as well you analyse them.

Boon Lay is not the right place to analyze 192/193 as the major loading is from Benoi to Tuas. I will be in Tuas in 2 weeks - will take 192, 193 on those days.
