And that would be King William Street or Victoria Square (not King William Square).

When will the TSA Iveco CB80s be making their way over to Sydney?

At least one (1309) of the NSW double blue Ivecos has been painted in Adelaide Metro livery, so I guess that's not destined for Sydney.

If any of the Sydney-liveried buses were bound for Sydney I'm sure the Torrens Transit drivers currently in Sydney would have driven them over there instead of flying. I'd say they will all stay here now.

Spotted 1380, another of Torrens' Ivecos, in full red-front AdMet livery yesterday. I'm guessing, as was predicted on here months ago, that none of the Ivecos are headed for Sydney. The 3 dark blue Volvos (1370, 1371, 1372) that Torrens had at Mile End doing train subs headed off to Sydney a couple of months ago and none of the Ivecos followed.
And what about the Daewoo in Sydney double blue livery that Light City are operating (own?)?

I believe it is on trial with LCB(arrangement with DPTI and Daewoo?)-no one seems to know how long it is staying before it returns to Sydney!
Transit Systems Sydney Fleet Lists is now on-line and only includes ex Torrens Transit 1370/1371/1372.All the over buses in NSW livery as had been mentioned earlier-owned by Torrens Transit-staying here,and being repained gradually into Admet colours.

Some good photos of ex-Torrens, ex-Paramatta Volvos (Torrens 1370, 1371, 1372) in their double blue NSW livery in the Sydney photos section.

sorry if the question is answered in another thread but if so, please link me but how come the scania CB80 is painted yellow?

I thought that new buses are painted red front and old/2nd hand buses are painted yellow front like the volvo b10 612 in the picture.

The trail apparently has ended in November according to the fleetlist, as the bus is with Interline in New South Wales. The bus is now owned by Interline, not on trial.

They changed the Adelaide Metro livery as the CB80s were built, so the first few (about 15-20 of them) were painted in the old yellow scheme.
