SINGAPORE: Six SBS double-decker buses were burnt beyond recognition at the Ang Mo Kio Bus Depot at 3.30am on Sunday.
The Singapore Civil Defence Force (SCDF) said it dispatched two fire engines and 20 fire fighters to the scene.
The fire was brought under control within 30 minutes.
No casualties were reported and the cause of the fire is being investigated.
A spokesperson from SBS said the loss of the buses will have some impact on its operations.
However, SBS will try to minimise inconvenience to commuters by redeploying buses where possible.
The total cost of the six buses is believed to be about S$3 million as each new double decker bus costs about half a million dollars.
