K230s 1403-1406 were originally numbered 1290-1293, until it was realised the rest of the K230s wouldn't fit into the 12xx range. There were also some 149x K230s, which got renumbered after being transferred to SouthLink.

The only artics in route service in Adelaide with two doors are 3331, with 71 seats, and the Busways CB60 L94UAs with 69 seats. The CB60 L94UAs have a twin leaf front door and single leaf centre and rear doors, and 67 seats. The CB60 Evo II K320UAs have 3 full with doors and 59 seats. The K320UA and...

I was riding an NL202 diesel recently, and one passenger remarked that the bus was old, and would probably break down at some point. Hell, one day about 6 years ago I was at TTP waiting for a 560, and some old woman complained that a "bloody old bus" (NL202) had shown up. Are those random people als...

The guy who did it is a Spanish national, and his visa expires in December, so he doesn't really have to worry too much about the coming "months/years to come".

You're right, 1046 to 1082 is 37. 1083 and 1084 are in service now too, so that makes it 39, and there's at least one more new unit currently sitting at Scania. The figure of 400 new buses was from the old contract that the Labor government signed, the newer contract signed by the Liberal government...

The contract also says that there'll be 29 rigids per year, and so far this year they're at 38 rigids. Maybe some of the artic orders were converted to rigids, or there's been a variance in how many buses get delivered each year. Either way, I think we'll be waiting a while for new artics.

It's possible that despite the contract featuring 50 artics, they may not necessarily be delivered on a yearly basis.

I ordered a Planetag at the end of August, got it last week. Luckily, mine didn't get sent back to the USA... Did you get one out of the first run of the Qantas 747-400 Series, Oscar-Juliet-November, aka "City of Dubbo"? That's the aircraft I got mine from - but there's a reason for my purchase.......

Can you check if that is still the case for you? Just looked and it is showing there correct time for me.

The correct time is showing now.

I notice the time is now out of sync by about one hour and seventeen minutes.

Proper maintenance and safe driving do tend to increase the lifespan of any car

Maybe you just have bad neighbours?

I think replacing "big and or old" with "slow" might help to answer the question.

Could be getting repainted, their other Hinos have been repainted.

The XDi doesn't have Scania components, so it could be compared to a Scania with bodywork from Bustech or any other manufacturer.

Although the article is from the UK, this seems to be the relevant part of it. I imagine the rules are quite similar in Australia. Unauthorised “pull” payments Banks are generally legally liable to customers for frauds committed which do not involve the customer authorising payment. If the fraud doe...

I saw that report, the actual problem was that she entered the competition on the NZ website, not the Australian one.

They're brand new buses still under warranty, how much maintenance should they do? Full engine rebuild after every trip perhaps?

It was a yes or no question.

Are you suggesting that racism doesn't exist because sometimes black people commit crimes?

Did you do it in a conservative manner? Not sure of the political angle on that post...

Bohemian Rhapsody was written 12 years before Freddie was diagnosed with AIDS, if that tells you anything.
