Re: Double takes & AOAs
Don't worry folks, I have no intention of letting any of the few relics I possess from disappearing into the ether.... they'll find a good home such as BPSWA eventually. They have all been rescued from rubbish piles at some point.
I'm not sure about quadruple figures on ebay either... maybe if you include the digits for the cents...

As Quoted on the page befor
How Funny & uneak are these ceremonial keys For a bus type that does'nt have a real start keys!
Good to here the keys will one day make there way to the BPSWA.
&I have that green key in my possession.
Those green Renault keys are survivors! I have the other one - celebrating the 500th Renault delivered in Australia.
1077 is the 500th reno.UQB-709, any chance of some photos of 1077's key?

Re: Double takes & AOAs
You know how it goes ,the day you forget to bring the good camera with you, something worth while pops up needing a picture taken , TP1745 ECU AOA for example.

Re: Double takes & AOAs
Saw two of the latest AOAs today ,1740s SunCorp Bank & 1811 with an Eventcorp event AOA from the 3rd to the 18 of Dec.
I only managed to get full photos 1740 because 1811 was to quick out of WSBS.
First is TP1740 at WSBS on a 354T. Next she is leaving on a 354F to Mirrabooka. Enjoy.

Re: Double takes & AOAs
Like the ACDC AOA ,the dates on 1811 gives a clue to how long this AOA will be around for many a photo opportunity.

Re: Double takes & AOAs
Luck was on my side today while blowing of time waiting for the Mechanic to arrive as some of the newer AOAs which and have been elusive to date just happened to go by.
1st up is TP1362 new AOA for Emirates which replaced the Perth Zoo AOA. 2nd up is another shot of TP1573 QBE Accidents Happens AOA on St Gees crossing Barrack st. And finaly TP1811 poped in to the bus port at the right time displaying its Perth World Sailing Championships AOA.
Enjoy

Re: AOAs in Perth & (Double View shots)
As posted In the " PTA Obbs Thread " TP3000 Has now got an AOA for Channel 10 " TERRA NOVA ".
This seems be the first AOA for a Perth Silver Low Floor artic or Advertisement alltogether on any of 4 Low Floor artics that are in service ATM, IIRC.

Re: Double takes & AOAs
I would love to see a few more photos of this livery..UQB709 wrote:Here is a Transperth publicity shot of 747 - it looks like it was taken at Gosnells, where this bus spent some time. The driver is holding a key which reads December 1989, 200th Renault, Transperth.Does anyone remember the AOA or Livery you'd most probably call it (as it was Transperth's own campaign) from back in the 90s on the Renaults ? It was basically a skeletal view of what it would look like if the panelwork were not there showing parts of the chassis and cylinders , wiring etc ... the actual slogan escapes me now but that would have to be my second favourite livery after the 900 series one as discussed previously. can anyone remember this or better yet have pics they could share?
It certainly was an eye catching livery - a good way to get public transport noticed, and talked about
