Many thanks to Metro_Tas, Tassy Bus Nut & Highway Traveller for an absolutley fantastic day. Certainly one of the busiest tours ever undertaken with plenty of surprises(all superb)along with a fantastic lunch break. I don't think anyone was disappointed with the day, and a good mix of Government and privates along with the Transport Museum which gaqve us access to trains, trams and troleybuses as well. A packed day which was very well organised. I'm unsure as to the absolute highlight of the day there being plenty to chose from. A job well done guys, thanks heaps. Good to meet you Tassy guys as a bonus.

Yes - indeed a most excellent tour - congrats to the organisers for putting together a most entertaining day of depot visits/ rides/ photo stops and a presentation from the CEO of Metro. The day included several surprise vehicles and even some opportunities for rail photography as a bonus. Very well done to all concerned.

Thank you VERY much for your comment Richard. I was VERY surprised when they offered to help, so I REALLY APPRECIATE all their help. Hopefully everyone had enough to eat, and thanks MUST also go to system improver for his assistance @ the BBQ till we arrived. Thank you to ALL concerned! Neil
