Sorry , thank you for the corrections in regards to the Transmissions.
I know the Adelaide 0305G had a different trans from the rigids for the O-Bahn.

Re: Merc 0305G up for sale

After speaking to the owner, i have corrected him on a few issue he made with his ad.
It still has a Merc 0305G engine 280hp with the 0305G ZF transmission.
The owner corrected the ad and the bus sold within a minutes.

Re: 1923 (Merc 0305 Mk1) at Central station. 9/6/19

They are still one of the best buses ever made to operate in Australia.
I would rather drive an 0305 or 0305G any day compared to these new plastic buckets that operate today.

Re: New Midis for Lonsdale

These are very good units for route that are not to busy.
They are owned by Keolis Downer and there are currently 8 in the fleet between Willaston Depot, Edinburgh Depot & Lonsdale Depot.

The only issue is the slowness of the door opening and closing.

Re: Canberra light rail: Development applications approved i

I fully agree and I am really shocked that this is happening, I was sure ACT had enough buses to cover this should the Light Rail fail. The buses in Adelaide are being inspected by the SA Government as we speak for the trip to ACT. As for the driver authorities, as long as you hold one in your home ...

(Hint: no.) I can answer some of your questions but no all. Yes SA do have Photo Large Passenger Accredit...

Kermit Buses Mile End

Hi Everyone.

Just wondering what is the status of the 2 Kermit buses located at Mile End Depot.
It has now been 12 months since Kermit 1 was seen driving around Adelaide, but they still are not in service yet?

I do like the look of the Percission Buses made here in Adelaide Edinburgh Parks.
