Warrnambool (31/12/08)
Dear All
Here's a few shots taken yesterday on a day trip to Warrnambool, in south-western Victoria. The various conpanies are sister operations of each other.
South Western Roadways #86 (Mercedes Benz O500RF, Express).
Warrnambool Bus Lines #77 (Mercedes Benz OH1421, Custom).
Warrnambool Bus Lines #93 (Mercedes Benz OH1728, Custom).
South Western Roadways #59 (Scania K113TR, Volgren).
Warrnambool Bus Lines/Transit South West #24 (Mercedes Benz O500LE, Volgren).
Portland Bus Lines/Transit Portland #63 (Mercedes Benz O500LE, Express).
South Western Roadways #97 (Mercedes Benz O404-2, Alan B. Denning).
V/line N460 leads the lunchtime service out of scenic Warrnambool.
Kind Regards
Craig

Terrific photo Craig.
I like the 6th photo of Portland Bus Lines/Transit Portland #63 Mercedes Benz O500LE Express and the last photo of the V/line trains with a great veiw.
Cheers
Bradley.

I saw this same train as I arrived at Southern Cross yesterday morning on my way to work, just moments before it was about to depart for Warrnambool, I should've waved at it!

At least they have a bus service that goes straight to their bus school! It gives aspiring new drivers a last minute chance to take it all in before they sit for their exams.Trolley Bus Racer wrote:Pic no. 2 really shows how backward They are down there
