Re: Busways Fleet changes
Very interesting - Busways have not done rail replacement for years and years and years.....!!
Does anyone know what contracts they will be sub contracting to?

Re: Busways Fleet changes
Busways Kind of did rail replacement a few month back, with the ex- yarramalong buses on it. although i think this was booked into prior to the takeover.

Re: Busways Fleet changes
837 is now in service, but with no external fleet numbers, only a very small internal one.
Re: Busways Fleet changes
Which depot is this at? And any idea of its rego?Busways K230UB wrote:837 is now in service, but with no external fleet numbers, only a very small internal one.
Also, Matty, any more news on the temporary transfer of 607 to Kempsey? Was it this most of late last when it left Laurieton?
Re: Busways Fleet changes
Hi Ben,
with temp transfer of #607 it looks like it will be back in Laurieton early next week, as the sale of #655 fell through and #652 XXX box benz vario back to coonville opps Kempsey.
and
will get back to you with a fleet number, but a renualt from Port went north to Yamba late last week. think it was a MRC Reno.

So I wonder when the other 13 will be heading over here and which ones.
Thoughts are with the people in Victoria at this very bad time.

We need to do some m/o MO sorting out here.Will wrote:MO 1197 ,MO 1198 ,MO 1199 ,MO 1200 ,MO 7722 ,MO 7728 and possibly one other Busway unit SOLD to Torrens Transit Adelaide.

MO 1197 was in fact reregd m/o 1197 some years ago.
MO 1198 was also reregd m/o 1199 some years ago.
MO 1198 and MO 1200 are correct.
MO 7722 and MO 7728 should be m/o 7722 and m/o 7728 and I believe these two were not previoulsy owned by Neil Smith.
Go to http://www.busaustralia.com/fleetlists/indbusdata.php and enter the correct regos as I have shown them and all will be revealed.
