Re: Translink and Qconnect
^ Agreed, there aren't enough regional bus route numbers for there to be a need for any clash. Just renumber them all to 800 and 900 series numbers and there will be no clash whatsoever with the 799 and below route numbers reserved for SEQ. But then it clashes with Brisbane Transport's district rou...

Re: BT Observations August 2014
Quite a regular sight infact, buses from other depots are parked up at Garden City Depot nearly all the time for mealbreaks and between 160s.

T2033 was on a 411 a couple of weeks ago in morning peak but apart from that haven't sighted any of the Pink ones on normal route service.

Re: Brisbane Transport Observations , March 2014
The S B10Ls you see on 101/102/102/122 and South West Transit operated school runs, are operated by South West Transit. The buses have been either loaned or transferred to South West Transit from Sherwood.

Re: Life expectancy of BT B10Ls
There was heaps of lemons sitting in the outside lanes near the V Scania's at Sherwood when I went past on Sunday so I presume those lemons are dead. Can't see the numbers from a distance but I presume they are most of the Sherwood allocated ones. Sherwood appear to be lending most of their few rema...

Re: Life expectancy of BT B10Ls
One for one replacement and no new significant service upgrades due would tend to the conclusion the Metros and B10Ls may all be off the road by the end of 2015 and that the oldest bus in the fleet would be a Scania. Assuming there is actually a Brusbane Transport fleet as such by then. BT seems to...

Re: Brisbane Transport Observations , March 2014
Would have been a bus swap/cover trip. Toowong don't do any southside services, apart from GCL and occasional special event shuttles from Eight Mile Plains when its busy from my observations.

Re: The Metroliners (B10M mk3 and mk4)
I usually see and catch the Virginia metroliners on 340's quite a bit during the week. Otherwise the best bet is to hang around Cultural Centre, especially during and on the fringe of the am and pm peak hour rush.

Seeing an A bus in service after they have closed is certainly different .
It seems the main intent of this thread is being lost a bit again.

That particular bus did a 300 outbound this arvo so I presume it was involved in a bus swap.

There might be two codes to display both signs in all buses as I've seen Sherwood buses display both.

Re: BCC tender for new Buses
Nothing wrong the L94Ubs, they may be a little slow but they provide a comfortable trip unlike some of the M.A.N.'s that have ongoing air bag issues.
Good to see BT has more than one contract winner, Getting pretty bored of the B7R's .

Re: SEQ bus network review
PDF Timetables are now up for the routes changed in the BT changes.
I noticed they have stuffed up the P179/180/181/186/P189 timetable map by showing the P179 OB as going via South Bank .

Maroon Glider one is pretty bad too:
Ashgrove City
Glider 61
It appears the desto's for both the Gliders now have the route number fixed with the destination.
