Spotted it just now in Hazelbrook. Was looking for a yellow bus but it's in TfNSW livery

I sent a photo of a Mk1 on the left hand side. That and all the discussion in this thread should be enough to convince someone (surely). If you aren't catering to the bus collector then who is the model tailored to? EDIT: just received confirmation from topgear that the model will be amended to refl...

I sent a facebook message using a train as an example, the L7 logo always had the top L pointing forward on the left side

The attached photo is from their facebook page. Why would it ever occur to them that the logo is a mirror image on the other side? The drivers side is correct

1960 would be the number of the traffic control signals site as the mural is on a traffic signal controller

In what respect?

I think tonymercury means on the actual bus

Blue Mountains line services are more efficient by stopping at less places. Somebody has seen sense!

Great work once again!

Hi ar157, the 4 power cars you talk about are former 2 car sets which have been composed into a 4 car consist. The other 4 cars are a normal 4 car makeup. The lettering for one of the 2 car sets is DMT and DTD, meaning (i think) double deck motor trailer and double deck motor driver. These 2 car ser...

Could the tangara carriage be the illusive 1 car train destined for Hornsby as outlined in the rail observations thread?

Us Blue Mountains Line commuters wouldn't mind some 4V services converted to 8V though!

Is the purpose of replacing V sets with H sets on the Newcastle line as outlined above to allow retirement of some sets or to free up more for other lines on the network?

Great photos! I live in the mountains but never get time to take some snaps. Ever so slowly the fleet's livery is being standardised, so it's good you got the Pearce livery in photo 4 before it disappears. Just FYI Blue Mountains Bus Company was 3 different bus companies about 15 years ago (might be...

Simonl, FYI 6 car v sets don't exist anymore

My friend informed me last night the service he was on (the 1906 Central-Mt Victoria) had traction motor failure between Bullaburra and Wentworth Falls. He told me that a freight train behind them was to push them up the hill to Wentworth Falls (of which I didn't believe). I was sent the below photo...

Some great photos there!

RickyT, I saw (presumably) the same numberless set you are referring to. I saw it go through parramatta on Wednesday afternoon (approx. 345pm) as a Blacktown express service (ie first stop Blacktown), which then terminated on platform 2 at Blacktown.

Sorry I can't help you with a photo Tas Bus Nut immediately, but I know there were also a couple of Hillsbus vehicles running around as Carnival Cruise Lines ships as well. If I see one i'll grab a photo

Found an AUBUS 0001 on eBay that has to be in the worst condition of all that were made. Look only if you are game! http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/160965593193;jsessionid=DB5EF779A7B0476904DA44433E9F5ED5?ru=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.com.au%2Fsch%2Fi.html%3F_from%3DR40%26_sacat%3D0%26_nkw%3D160965593193%26_r...

I saw that Volvo B7 in picture 1 coming up through Bullaburra before christmas with what I thought looked like unhealthy black exhaust In its wake. Looks like it caught up with it eventually

I personally don't think its worth that much, probs $150 max.

For those who can justify the cost considering other models are coming, check this one out:

Ordering both versions MKIV, UNSW Sydney Buses MKIII and both artics

This model was one of two (from memory) which were made by transitgraphics, of whom somebody commissioned them to make (presumably the eBay seller). They are simply aubus1001's resprayed into tfnsw livery. Check out the transitgraphics Facebook page for details of when they were made. FYI anybody ca...
