yah, half burnt and still alive kicking as of now...
TIB III0 S was the whole bus burnt down, so unsavable
This year has changed alot, Looking back,other than the depot transfers, I'd say alot has changed, extension of 858 and becoming a WAB-Svc, extension on 106 to Shenton way,UDs coming back and stuff etc, and in the midst of the extension of some buses some really proved their worth, some didn't.
MAN NL323F, SMB138Y registered...
Not to forget service 135 and 138 getting Volvo B10M perms.
First batch of 150 Wrights finally on service.
Relocation of service 179 and 199 to new Boon Lay Interchange.
Extension of services 97, 133, 502, 518 and 106 to MBS and introduction of 133M.
Introduction of the new Sunlong Hybrid buses and Higer Electric bus (but still not on service )
