Ex. Darwin Bus #100 (mo 8.100)

Post by Merc1107 »

Seems the Fleetlists are lacking information on this. Darwinbus #100 was disposed from revenue service at "some point," and is now a resident of Charles Darwin University Casuarina Campus.
I do not have information whether it served with TerritoryTransit, although I assume it did given they took over the Government operations several years back.

As the photo shows, she seems to be registered at present as CB-61-NT, and is stored behind some mechanical workshops. As CDU has some sort of vocational facility, I can only presume its used for training purposes.
My apologies for the hideous colour rendition, the shot was poorly scanned off of a 35mm negative by the incompetent mob at Darwin Camerahouse... My usual mob in Perth do a far better job of this!

It was withdrawn from service well before Territory Transit took over Darwin Bus Service from the NT government.
need red GA:521, 831.
