Service 5 redeployments

Hi, to reply your question regarding SBS6635E, SBS8829A & SBS6655Y

Sv 5 had a new weekday timetable wef 25/11/2019, and here are the following changes/redeployments:

• SBS6192R is the replacement for SBS6635E, unsure about SBS6635E's current status but saw it frequenting 57 & 195 recently I think
• SBS8829A & SBS6655Y came in to fill up vacant slots previously used by the SPAD K230UBs which left UPD 5 for UPD170/A sometime in August/Sep 2019
• 2 UPD 5 A/P single deck slots remains vacant, with random UPD buses getting deployed on these two slots.

On a side note:

• SBS8335H is the replacement for SBS6211U from 12/08/2019 onwards
• SBS8335H transferred over from BNDEP > UPD 5 wef 28/7/2019, with SBS5065G transferring over from UPD > BNDEP 5 as SBS8335H's replacement.
• SBS8335H ran as a UPD Spare bus for a couple of weeks before it replaced SBS6211U under UPD 5.

Hope this clears up the air

Best Regards, SBS3118B

Hi can I ask how did you derive that 8338 is not a Sv 47 perm while 8952b is?

8338A has been consistently on 47, while 8952 has been jumping around services

8952B:

292 26 Jan
29 1 Feb
69 & 225G 3 Feb
19 4 & 10 Feb
9 2 & 11 Feb
40 12 Feb
4 30 Jan & 13 Feb

On 15 Feb it did reappear on 47 in the afternoon on 2 trips, did not see 8338A 8338A does appear on 47 on Saturdays when 1/2 DD slots are run by SDs. I have ovserved there are 3 DDs daily and 8338A could be replacing a DD. 8338A does not appear daily and seems to be a spare it seems assigned to 47 during off peak hours.
