Looking at Scanias m/o 236, 526 and 4249 dating back to 1990 - now 24 years old - I doubt that they would be repainted.R-C wrote:Incorrect!Punchbowl Tiger Cub wrote:m/o 7241,m/o 408 and m/o 737 still to be done in TNSW.
408, 737, MAN 14.230s and Hino's will not be going in TFNSW.

Re: Punchbowl Bus and Punchbowl Goulburn Fleet changes
Fleet Lists,
The 3 x K93's will not be repainted as they will shortly clock up their 25th birthdays and accordingly will not be contract eligible vehicles.

Re: Punchbowl Bus and Punchbowl Goulburn Fleet changes
Just noted that the post above should say 408 and 7241 *not 737*

Re: Punchbowl Bus and Punchbowl Goulburn Fleet changes
We've now also reached the point where there are actually more Punchbowl buses in TNSW colours than their own livery.

Daniel,
Actually a bit sad with this but it was going to happen at some stage.By my calculations,there are 12 more vehicles to paint.
The only saving grace in the opposite direction is at PBC Goulburn where it has basically completed it's repaint programme to PBC colours with the vehicles not repainted as slated to go in the short term.
Regards Punchbowl Tiger Cub.

Re: Punchbowl Bus and Punchbowl Goulburn Fleet changes
And I saw one in Hurstville today that looked as though it would be one of the next ones as it had quite a bit of grey on it - it might have been m/o 9287.

Yes, second those thanks. And good to see she still has her headights. Why do the disappear/get smashed first on old buses?
Its easy to forget the Gallery when there is a tendency to focus on the Forum.

Daniel,
No problem - have to spend some time to sit down with Bus Riders and double check what we have.
Received confirmation today that there is definitely a 4th K280UB in the pipeline but details such as delivery date and specs are still to be advised.
Kind Regards Punchbowl Tiger Cub.
