WA Bus Observations 2024

That photo certainly looks posed. Wonder what was the occasion.

Perhaps an enthusiast wanted a photo, and the destination was set by a like-minded driver to pose the shot. Plenty of examples of that can be found in enthusiast groups, or on 'perthbus.info' proper.

I guess you can say the same about 1890 spotted in Embleton in 2021 with Route 21 front desto? This route is long gone and is now part of 950.

I would think the EDS controller gets reset every time a contract changes hands or a bus gets transferred to other operators. 1890 has never left Malaga in its life. Unlikely it would display route details of a service not controlled by Path Transit.

1501 (0405NH) has been transferred to Swan, seen it running a 204T on Ranford Road Canning Vale yesterday morning. Previously noted on the Fremantle depot list.

Just spotted it on 210. I'd say most likely a SR bus.

1686 on 34 and 1893 on 72.

Spotted 1222 in midvale depot following my first half this morning

[Shoudy Chen]

Yesterday saw 1687 travelling on 980F on William street. I’m pretty sure it has transferred to Bayswater depot

1888 on 38.

Saw something unusual today took a Save the Bees Mercedes Benz O305G CVL2399 run by Perth Bus [A Chalkley] on a Transperth Route 388 from Warwick to the Perth Busport today at around 10AM and i would like to why would a Perth Bus Save The Bees O305G Be running a Transperth Route did a B7 or B8 that was supposed to run the route broke down at all or not. Because i thought O305Gs didnt run Transperth Routes anymore but today one did and this was an unusual thing that happened.

Can you seriously please stop with the lies as Transperth bus services are DONE by Transperth buses and not small private companies! If one breaks down, there would be a replacement called in from respective depots.

Oh and CVL2399 is ex-Adelaide 578/1578.

For the first time in a while, 3001 is out and about, currently running a 998 short trip between UWA and Stirling - and on a rare occasion as of recently, in full corporate livery!

Not quite. It was photographed in service, in standard livery while between AOAs briefly (only one day!) in either 2018 or 2019.

Thanks, edited accordingly (a very lucky photograph then!)

Sorry but this just doesn't happen - especially where Perth Busport is involved given how that place operates.

Occasionally privates turn up on rail (although it isn't as common as it once was - the last big shutdown run by privates may well have been the Armadale line in 2016), but never in route service.

I would be interested to know what gave you the impression this bus was doing a 388?

The Reason why i posted this was because this was an unusual sight because i boarded if from Warwick Station and took it to angove street unless this was a charter service as there was quite a few people on it about 10-25 people. I did not have be abused by Zidanehartono

With a claim as brazen and statistically impossible as that, the general ruling is “photos or it didn’t happen.” Along with that, given your track record of unsupported, debunked, and misleading “observations,” Zidane wasn’t completely in the wrong to call you out in that way. If this is counted as “abuse,” I’d hate to see what other board members have to say about this topic…

I saw it too. Also saw two unicorns onboard and a three eyed dragon.

And the driver was a werewolf, no less.
