190 perms

Hi, may I know how do you define perms on 190? There has got to be a clear definition on the specific frequent appearances of DDs that are doing 190, as some DDs rotate.

Also, unless 107L is spotted doing the first few duties from Kampong Bahru, which have "sticky" single decker buses, I do not believe that 107L perms 190 unless proven otherwise. This is where I ask how frequent is 107L on 190.

In addition, I hope that you also keep track of the number of extra buses that is seen in the notes and do balance where necessary. Thanks and regards!

Reply: Fleet size and duties matter

Hi.

Those services that you have mentioned earlier use buses from other services, hence the total fleet size & duty count don't tally. It is somewhat the same as SBS, where there are instances of having more duties than buses, or lesser duties than buses even though the service does not practise jumpbus. Their fleet are not interchangeable like 61 & 991 case.

Hope this clarifies your query.

Re: 190 SDs count

Ah I see. Hopefully, I only saw about 6-7 SDs on 190 the previous Sundays. But I will check if there a total of 11 SDs on 190 during peak hours next Sunday.

Thanks,

Re: 975B observations

Hi, sorry for the late reply since I have been busy doing other stuff, but I am not sure if DDs from 975 will do 975B on Sundays but I promise that I will observe if it is random or it's from 975. I will update you when its done

Thanks,

302x190 high capacity bus crossover

Hi, may I ask is SG6244L the bus that does 302x190 crossover at 1616 hrs? Cos I have spotted all the other DDs running on 302 during PM peak (1800 - 1900 hrs). Thanks!

Edit: Also for 302A, the 3 AM and 3 PM buses are different. I suspect they are either 976 (most likely - 1574P and 1575L frequently seen), 970 or 188 crossovers but they are very random and sometimes 300 and 307 buses are used.

Re: SG6244L

Yea SG6244L OS from 302 around 12pm. Most likely 6244L perms this crossover. Bendies frequently replace missing 302 DDs so it probably also applies to 6244L.

As for 302A, I have seen 976-302-something on DDU before. 121U and 122S from 188 also frequently appear on either 302A or the full 302 crossover during PM peak.

Thanks for your reply

Re: 302A SDs

Yea 302A SDs are random but some appear more frequently than others like 1611, 1648 (Spare); 121, 122, 1580, 1581 (188); 1574, 1575 (976) and 970 SDs. These are also common on the full 302 evening crossover

Re: 184x302

Hi I am not sure what block number it is on, but you can catch it from Yew Tee Stn bus stop at around 5.50pm (its the first High-capacity bus after 4 consecutive 302 SDs).

From my observation it is almost always a svc184 Enviro500 or Bendy but it has characteristics of a 302 split shift duty opposite of SG6244L. It runs for a short while in the morning on 302A then run much longer in the evening on 302 until late night (whereas 6244L runs from early morning all the way until noon). I'm not sure if it runs on 184 during AM Off-Peak but its almost always a 184 perm bus
