One of the Belgrave trespassings seems to have been organized crime of disrupting social order, involving two consecutive near-misses resulting in both the original and relief drivers requesting relief.

From 30 April 2023, more services will be introduced on routes 733 Oakleigh – Box Hill via Clayton & Monash University & Mt Waverley and 767 Southland – Box Hill via Chadstone & Jordanville & Deakin University. Passengers will benefit from an extra 154 weekly trips on Route 733 and a...

Ventura Ivanhoe also have those, as I noticed on route 527. They announce both the intersecting road and the road the bus is on, and for the latter, it actually spells out "R D", "S T"... You normally don't even need to include the road the bus is on unless the stop is near a tur...

Today I saw a Dysons Mercedes bus running out for a train replacement service in Greensborough. It looked old but I don't think the original Dysons, Reservoir or BBC had it. I didn't get a chance to see if it was high floor, but it looked similar to the Mercedes high floor bus used by National's Don...

Hi moderators, Earlier today when I tried to log on in City, the page prompted that I was permanently banned based on the IP, which gave me a shock. However when I used the wifi of a bank to log on again, it went back to normal. I would like to suggest that if you have to ban someone, ban the ID bec...

I had a ride on a Parallel Hybrid bus on route 902. I noticed that it's semi automatic transmission during the mechanical transmission stage (After electric motor gives the bus some boost from standstill), with no torque output for approx. half a second during the gear shift. This is the same with a...

Thanks. I liked traveling on the box shaped Scania buses used by Dysons, as there were single seats on the left side. However route 546 used an even older version with round corners. Was there any reason why old buses were deployed on route 546?

I had a ride on route 472 today. A thumb up for their choice of bus layout with so many latitudal seats and yet still having wheel chair spaces. I don't know what's wrong with some operators who chose the layout with all longtitudal seats on the left side.

Last evening at approx. 18:30 a high floor bus was sighted in Lonsdale St. It only has a front door, B10M, all over white, blank destination.

Whenever Southbank Depot needs to operate sports extras, they cancel route 35 and shorten route 12 to avail drivers. Kew and Camberwell don't seem to be involved in the extras at all.

Sorry for a non-news post. The post about route 566 reminds me of my observation the other day along Plenty Rd. There used to be 3 bus routes between Tyler St. and Boldrewood Pde., but only route 566 remains today. I know route 567 got rerouted to travel direct along Tyler St. What happened to route...

Last night Murray Rd. was closed at Preston Station. The driver of the route 903 bus I was on wasn't made aware until he was in the right turn lane at St Georges Rd. when the construction workers waved him to detour. He radioed control and got the advice to make a left turn into Murray Rd. (from the...

On the morning of the 29th June my up Mernda train was diverted and opened doors on platform 2 at Clifton Hill. A possibly defective train was occupying platform 1.

Perhaps this will allow route 518 to be deleted and the resource (one bus) redeployed on route 517.

It's not too far to walk from Surrey Hills station to the Union Rd. stop on route 109.

It's logical to axe the City section of route 684 but it's disappointing that no extra Eildon trips are run.
