Transit Systems - Sydney (Region 3)
Seems like no one doing a fleet list for them
Sighted at the depot today is:
1601 1602 Hino RG with Autobus body
1603-1606 Hino RG with P&D body
Also ex- Brisbane Transport B10M are:
1801-1808 as far as I can see, and I believe is ex-242 was used for parts
From a number of sources and sighting
B7RLE/CB80 are 1295-1308 so far.

The fleet list is being developed offline. But I would certainly recommend any sightings be posted here as the fleet builds in anticipation of the start date.
The B10Ms are actually in the 1200 and 1300 range. Noted as being registered so far:

Re: Transit Systems - Sydney (Region 3)
What's the point of making a public fleet list for a company that isn't operating yet?
As Daniel says, this thread is a good place to post all confirmed sightings in preparation for a fleetlist in October.

Re: Transit Systems - Sydney (Region 3)
Sight at depot today are 3 ex- Parramatta Shuttles B7R in TNSW
Also sighted in Dandenong is a Volgren B7RLE in TNSW livery with fleet number 1102, not sure is it a TSA bus or not

Re: Transit Systems - Sydney (Region 3)
Since TNSW took over from the Parramatta council the three buses owned by the Council but operated by Veolia Transport were sold and have even operated in SA for a while for TSA, and replaced in Parramatta by two Veolia (now Transdev) buses as free shuttle buses

Re: Transit Systems - Sydney (Region 3)
I didn't realise they went to SA, they must've been tidied up, cause they were sitting at Bankstown Depot for a while and were all dusty and dirty and had Spider webs all inside them, December 2012

That must be one good sneak preview of the upcoming operator's bus fleet.

3x Mercedes O500LE / Volgren units ex Brisbane Transport have arrived at Moorebank. At least two of the Hino Autobuses have been repainted into TNSW livery also (1603 and 1604).

Re: Transit Systems - Sydney (Region 3)
Initially rumored to be Transdev Melbourne but this appears not to be the case. It is believed that 20 are due to go to Sydney immediately and 20 to Adelaide as they come off lease next year.

The Transit Systems Sydney fleet list is not available to the public as yet, that is why they cannot be seen.

Re: Transit Systems - Sydney (Region 3)
I realise that, sorry I didn't explain that very well, You were talking about it is believed that 20 Merc O500LE/Volgren are going to Transdev Sydney (Adelaide & Melbourne), The only thing listed in the to be delivered in Transdev NSW is 710. So I take it that it's not confirmed that buses are coming to Transdev Sydney?

Re: Transit Systems - Sydney (Region 3)
They are going to Transit Systems not Transdev, this is the Transit Systems thread after all! The units are already at Wales Repairs Smithfield being painted.
Also there has been a sighting of the first MAN Volgren, hopefully OLYMPIAN can enlighten us further.

Most of the Transit Systems Volvo CB80s were delivered to Moorebank today.
Re: Transit Systems - Sydney (Region 3)
Are they getting volgrens out of brisbane (new)? Seen a couple of new volgrens been road tested recently, I'm sure one of them had transit systems on it, 1135 was the fleet number in TNSW colours.
