i have a better pix of the DAF alexanders.
they were never new new in AMKDEp. instead because WLDEp was not around then,,,there is this KJDEp, and this KJDEp operated many "AMKDEP" of today services like 160, 182 and 955 ( 4 slots). . thus confusion arose for me.
as pointed out, even 178 was under kjdep. the dafs never left kjdep at all. till today they are still in ther
ok thanks 1018 + vivienlee
i too have a better outlook at the scania L113CRLs. they were new to amkdep and operated on many amkdep services like 171 854 103 59 163 and even bus 82. 75 was also under amkdep then.
the fact that 75 was under ammkdep n used scanias caused much confusion when i was compiling the list. haha
eventually in 1998 to 1999 as the lances start to come in from being shifted from services 103 59 and 163 who were returned to sbs. the scanias were free to do cameos all over the place. filling up 171s with so many scania regos. lol
after about 1 or 2 years of cameoing within AMKDEP services, woodlands depot finally opened n the scanias were shiifted over there in many phases.

Service 75 was never under AMDEP before, it was all the while under KJDEP in the early days. Those days service 75 had DAFs and Hinos only. Service 75 started to have OAC/NAC Scanias after it came full WLDEP in June 2000. However heard that service 75 is going back to KJDEP again soon.If I am not mistaken, AMDEP transferred its Scanias progressively to WLDEP according to its regos. Some of its earlier batch of Scanias (eg. 56x -57x series) had been with WLDEP since day 1. At the same time AMDEP received its new Malaysian Dennis Lance buses. There was also a time when NAC Scania Elbos remained in AMDEP whereas all the NAC old Nissan U31 SCNs were transferred to WLDEP, after which AMDEP transferred all its NAC Scania buses to WLDEP in return of the NAC Nissans.
TIB664S-TIB674M were the last batch to get transferred to WLDEP, only after UK Dennis Lances came in to take over in Apr 2000. Happened that service 75 came under WLDEP in June 2000, those last batch of Scanias that came in from AMDEP were deployed on service 75 perms.
TIB665P all the while had been serving on service 160/980 since day 1 in AMDEP. Went to perm service 167 in July 2000 after it got transferred to WLDEP. Became a service 980 permer again, when service 167 and 980 came under partial AMDEP/WLDEP in Jan 2001

- sorry the format sucks but i cant figure out how to make the table frome xcel look...the way it is from excel.
TIB906U was initially on service 854 if I am not wrong.TIB919H-TIB921A, TIB926L if I am not mistaken were AMDEP SP or something. TIB926L only went to service 980 in July 1999. TIB919H-TIB921A went to service 859 when it came under AMDEP in Aug 1999.
TIB939A did service 169 after TIB927J was taken out for dunno some reasons. TIB931X caught fire and was deregistered
.TIB940U-TIB946D did service 866 in the beginning days, after which it got scattered to service 853/854 when service 866 became SBS.

point to note 961 got most of the hino Volgrens new new. except 950 (521's bus) and 954. my question is was 954 part of the 961 folks? or was it debut on another service?
for me, i thought 954 was kept in depot until it finally debutted on 188
ZYX
Yeah...TIB948Z, TIB949X, TIB951M, TIB952K, TIB953H, TIB955C, TIB956A (just to name those that I can remember)
KJDEP pamper service 961 with all these new Hino Volgrens. However WLDEP took over full control of service 961 in Dec 1999. Those Hino Volgrens went to service 188 instead, whereas service 961 was left with Scanias, Mercs and Nissans from WLDEP (WLDEP also gave TIB969M to service 961 
)TIB950R was under WLDEP, reason is to deploy a so called new "smiley" bus to newly introduced express service 521. I remembered seeing TIB950R cameoing on service 167 and 851 before
. After some time it got transferred to KJDEP and joined in the rest of the Hino Volgren gang -
Wah 1018B true expert in TIBS/SMRT wor lols...
Great... Yeah that explains why I find 950R missing in KJ Volgren Hinos until it appeared on svc 945 one day... I don't really expect that as the first deployment in KJ, but I do recall 949X with Michellin advert on 188 last time when i was in Sec 1 (2002), long time back...

I thought TIB949X got the black advert? It should be TIB951M which got the Michellin Advert.
-
Hmm, my wrong, yup its 951M with Michellin advert that i should refer to...
949X was also on 188 too? Cause the ticket that I got is from that service... 951M no tix...

Hmm then you must be more senior in age than me...
Hope we can meet and discuss more about the good old days of TIBS...
Although it did not live long with me, but the memories were good ones...

Service 851 was once full WLDEP controlled between Oct 1998 to Jan 2001. Seen TIB950R cameoing on service 851 once during its WLDEP days.
