10:00 AM
After a long hiatus...... for not taking bus photos for a long time (about 3-6 months), I finally have a whole free afternoon for me to take bus photos and some night scenery shots at night...
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Same number on Same Service:
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Buses with RP ad are just a bunch of STALKERS to me... Everywhere I go, buses with RP ad will follow me.. Even for cameos, it won't let me off also!!
TIB516L on Service 77: (Permerant depot & service of this bus: KJDEP 189)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
How about the Duty-Unpaid cigarettes advertisement?
TIB610Y on Service 700: (Permerant depot & service of this bus: KJDEP 67)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
How about a Nikon D300 ad as well?
TIB668G on Service 171:
=========================================================
How about going back to the good old nostalgic days? (Featuring some memorable cameo shots)
TIB1001Z never failed to cameo on Service 700A during the December season for the past 2 years... And now it becomes a nostalgic because this service is no longer controlled by Woodlands Depot, and that Kranji Depot was quite stingy in dumping bendies on Service 700A for weekends..
December 2007:
December 2006:
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
TIB595H on Service 700/700A. Although it used to be perm under Woodlands Depot, ever since after 23th March 2008's massive redeployment, this bus on this service has became a history...
This is after the accident at Whitley Rd when this became the 2nd rigid bus to be fitted with new LAWO EDS which is Orange in color, after TIB484U..
Tempted for night shot since it looks nice with orange EDS on a night..
When it cameo on Service 75: (this is also a history as this service is also controlled by Kranji Depot liao)
When it got changed to Tiger Airway ads..
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
How can we forget the elite bendies on Service 700?
As this service does not have perm Volgren bendies during its glory Woodlands Depot days, this photo is also nostalgic liao...
TIB1178Y on Service 700: (Permerant depot & service: WLDEP 169)
TIB1182J on Service 700: (Permerant depot & service: WLDEP 963)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Nissan Diesel (or UDs in short) on those "not supposed to get the super old bus" services... Nostalgic isn't it? Anyway these UDs are due to scrap by this year end when the new Euro 5 Mercedes Benz OC500LE arrive..
CSS183U on Service 966: (Permerant depot & service: WLDEP 980/SP?)
CSS193R on Service 75: (Permerant depot & service: WLDEP 852)
This bus on this service has also became a history because of a change in depot control of this service to Kranji Depot
CSS190Z on Service 187: (Already deregistered/scrapped to date)
The 1st and the last time I saw and snapped this bus on any service.. I guess not many bus enthusiasts saw this bus during its SMRT Buses days..
How can we forget the 2 joker UDs on a TOWN service? Somemore it's SMRT's best frequency, top cashcow service!!
CSS179H on Service 190: (Permerant depot & service: KJDEP 975)
CSS180C on Service 190: (Permerant depot & service: KJDEP 975)
By the way, these 2 buses happened on the very same day...
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
How about an current BNDEP bus on ex-AMDEP service?
SBS2754X on Service 186: (Used to be AMDEP spare bus)
Earlier on (a few weeks/months before the top photo one), it cameo on the same service but on a faithful Friday and it hit the jackpot of sole Service 186/400 night crossover.... (I guess I am the only one who got Mk 4 bus photo on Service 400? Somemore it's crossover to Service 400 for 2 trips IIRC, not on Service 400 the whole day)
The top cameo of this post goes to......
SBS2754X on Service 400: (Used to be AMDEP spare bus)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
How about cute little bus cameoing on other services other than its permerant service, 42 and 92..?
SBS8018Z on Service 58: (Permerant depot & service: BNDEP 42)
Top speed of close to 90km/h at night along a deserted long stretch road when it's heading towards Pasir Ris!!
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
How about the sole bendy bus with new Hanover orange EDS cameoing on other service?
TIB1034D on Service 184: (Permerant depot & service: KJDEP 190)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
How about the sole Hino Volgren demonstrator bus cameoing on other service?
TIB905Y on Service 975: (Permerant depot & service: KJDEP 941)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
How about a current BNDEP Volvo B10TL aka VSO on an ex-BRBP service?
SBS9812R on Service 157: (Current permerant depot & service: BNDEP 14)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
How about a Volvo B10TL aka VSO on a service which does not exist anymore?
SBS9803S on Service C2: (Current permerant depot & service: AMDEP 133)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The glory days with TIBS livery...
TIB835R on Service 920: (Current permerant depot & service: WLDEP 852)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Service 921... Will always be remembered.......
TIB663U on Service 921: (Current permerant depot & service: WLDEP 167)
TIB638T on Service 921: (Ex-permerant depot & service: WLDEP 921)
Taken on the last day of this service using 12m bus before it switched to mini busplus buses. Eventually this service was withdrawn and Service 700/700A was amended to cover up for the lost of Service 921 with the new Petir Rd extension being opened.. This bus is currently permerant on Service 922, which is well known for its 30 mins frequency thanks to the Bt Panjang LRT...
