Correct me if I'm wrong, but I could've sworn I saw 3003 this morning in the Busport, at about 10am.

I may have misread it, it may have been 3002, but I really thought it said 3003.

1048 is still cruising around Esperance in Transperth colours but sporting a TransEsperance logo, whilst the other buses are still in their Redlion (red & yellow) uniforms.

PS: if any of you out there know what the hey is going on down here re: TransEsp & Redlion couldja let me know, can't be bothered ringing the actual mob themselves to find out :roll:

697 was doing a 67T around 1830 last night entering Busport. Although this is part of a artic second half shift on a Sunday Afternoon/Twilight its interesting to see a high floor artic out in the dark and especially Sunday night...

3001 was taken to Welshpool Depot this morning, sharing the adjacent pit to 3002 whilst they received some modifications.
