  Maybe cleaning the rims more ex then repainting it wholly? aww means slowly we'll see the Alcoa logo disappear.

  You know...they don't really bother about logo, except their own. There's already many buses with badges missing or painted over. If I ever see a SBST Bus without any logo at the front, side and rear, then I would just say that bus have a "good future", no loyal to SBST. I think we should see wholly plain white buses instead.

  SMRTB has set a good example by removing the Hispano, Scania, Mercedes, DAF and Hino badges. Those buses which recently got their badges back got their SMRT logos covered up by the badges (e.g. TIB1024H and TIB457Z). Also noticed that there is no standard place that SBST puts their logo on their buses especially for WA Merz where badges can be centre, on the left on top of their headlights and no logo.

  OT: B9s look ugly without their SBST logo in front IMO

  SBS7389J kenna repainted rims. Instead of normal shiny rims, its now silvery. Previously, the bolts and nuts should be grey in colour, but now they were all silver, like normal other SBS's old buses.

  Anyone got a picture?

  I think Scania L113CRL did 307 once when KJDEP had Scanias.
  I saw it in this forum sometime back last year.

  Heard that the EDS was recycled from TIB845L.
  
  Pity the ELBOs.Sacrificing themselves for their younger brothers.

  Yes.U are right.I also saw SBS776X yesterday and i saw that it's front is repainted.As u say,the black stains are still there on the right side.As the time i saw the bus was a sunny period,the repainted front was gleaming apart from the rest of the bus.
  
  SBS986G is exactly the same case as SBS776X also.Only it's front is repainted.The lower part of it's body on the right side has some stains.

  quite a strange move don't you think by bndep whereby they just painted the front only..

  for now I can only think of one reason, perhaps they are gonna have full body ads soon..

  FYI the ELBOs are younger then the OAC Scania L113s.

  The OAC Scanias were brought in first (TIB6XX range) while the ELBO was registered much later (TIB8XX range).

  Wait long long man. All 3 depots already have Volgren rigids since last time when its new, but for Volgren bendies, is what WLDEP famous about. So, SMRT won't possibly x-fer the bendies to other depots, unless otherwise something happens.
