Transdev NSW Fleet changes - ex Veolia and Shorelink

[Fleet Lists]

As said before it has been operating Taren Point services since then.

Seeing 287 doing the 10:05am Kogarah bound 947 yesterday morning witch means that Taren Point might still have some rostered 947s I might need to make a trip to Kingsgrove next Wednesday to find out if 287 has been transferred or not as I get out late on Fridays stay around Campbelltown on Saturday and Sunday and work on Monday and Tuesday

As mentioned above
287 is not at Kingsgrove, I have been there, all of fleet lists should be updated soon.

[Fleet Lists]

Taren Point may now be doing some 962 trips as 8350 was seen on that route at Bankstown today - unusual to see a TP bus at Bankstown - unless it has been transferred to Menai.

Taren Point do some 961's & 962's now
Kingsgrove don't

Seen twice today in the Cronulla area about thee hours apart a coach which appeared very new on private plates. Both times driving in opposite direction and did not get the rego and could not get a photo.

Not Transdev's
We haven't got any new coaches
All our coaches are on TV Plates

It may have been the bus I saw today in all white operating on route 985 - it was new - it had white destos.

I was at a function at Cronulla Golf Club when I saw it go past twice this morning and then later when going to lunch at Sharkies I saw it again - first time I saw the route number closely enough to identify it. But again side views on each occasion with no rego identified.

It may be a demonstrator (although they are supposed to be in blue and white) - pity on occasions like this that such vehicles are no longer listed in the company fleet list but are be listed in a demo fleet list which I believe is still to be created.

[Daniel]

A demo on loan to Taren Point is CJ65VY which is a Mercedes O500LE Euro 6 CB80. Arrived 14/2/17.

Charter Bus 8115 ex (91) moved from SG to TP

see https://www.flickr.com/photos/193972346 ... 680824202/ Shows on bus as CB80 Series II.
Surprisingly a demo not in blue and white.

A demonstrator fleet list already exists. The link to it is here: http://www.busaustralia.com/fleetlists/ ... search=NOO

Looks like m/o 9086 - MAN back at Mt Ku-Ring-Gai from Taren Point. Out on school runs this last Friday around Hornsby and Wahroonga.

[mo 5537]

Noted in Fleet Changes recently that MAN - m/o 9086 was de-registered in 3/17. Saw her on school duties this afternoon in Mt Colah. Good to see.
Regards, m/o 5537

m/o 9086 is deregisteted. Are you sure it was not another unit you saw?

[Fleet Lists]

Rego check shows

Registration details
The registration expires on
31 March 2018

So rego appears to have been renewed.

[Daniel]

My apologies, I had received conflicting advice. It would appear it lapsed and was decided to have it reinstated.
Meanwhile 8373 has expired and has been moved to Kingsgrove.

[mo 5537]

Many thanks Daniel. You had me worried mate - thought I was seeing things again! Sorry to see m/o 8373 (ex m/o 7050) gone. Last of the old Shorelink Volvos from 1990.

[Daniel]

The collection at Kingsgrove is growing with Volvo B10L Oranas arriving ex Good Az Gold. As well several ex Transdev Brisbane MAN Ansairs are at South Granville waiting works to bring them up to standard to enter the charter fleet.

Have there been any further moves between Taren Point and Kingsgrove?
During the school holidays I saw a number of Kingsgrove buses on what would normally be Taren Point routes. I thought they may have been just holiday moves.
But with schools back today I saw Kingsgrove buses 5008 and 5009 on what are normally only Taren Point routes (977 and 968 respectively).

[Fleet Lists]

On the same basis 5005 was on route 969 this morning.
