It would certainly be of interest seeing how the Volgren looks in the ERBS livery.

I heard today that RedBus are thinking about getting back into the Tour market or perhaps a Airport shuttle service again.

Brilliant photo "venturatiger"!!! Not once did I see 599 out and about during the short time it was at Bankstown; I thought it didn't make it onto routework...

If Veolia had just put their logos onto that, it would've instantly looked like they owned the bus.

with regard to 'bigmacholdthefries' posts about red bus tours and airbus starting up again, found out from my driver friend that this is incorrect.
