But, as I can understand from postings on this forum, we cannot purchase any more Cruezet (sic) machines. that is our limitation. We can purchases more buses and rolling stock and, for those people who use them, they can get on for free. I do not think purchasing more buses is the problem. You want...

I've always wondered if that refers to your lottery ticket, or AFL ticket? It's a tad ambiguous

- Slow driving (e.g. 40 in a 60-zone) for no apparent reason Legal as long as you're in the left lane. This is common when the bus runs early - On and off the accelerator and/or brakes or heavy on brakes This annoys the hell out of me, but not so much as a train running 20 minutes late with no ackn...

Cooked engine?

Are there any further details on the incident?

They may be higher numbers as there have been at least 4 completed units nearly a month ago.

How many are we supposed to get?

should animals be allowed on buses, storey in the tele today. mustve never done a 545 in sydney or 350 to swansea at nite time :twisted: Most passengers are animals!!!!! If we could ban them then services would always be on time. And a traffic hazard because they have too much time in the timetable

How is that? Both buses in the same location and same position as they were a few months prior. Upon me telling this to the driver he backed off a little more............................just in case! 8) I dread the day a bus runs out of fuel on the Obahn at at 5.30PM or something, and comes to a si...

But I had another bus to catch.

Maybe if I were bigger boned, or had an tt or cop "id" badge.

If you showed him a badge with really small print, he'd be so preoccupied trying to make out what it says that he wouldn't even see the first blow coming

It does, on the other hand, add to their image as a discounter - not that it is really true any more. In at least one of the stores in Adelaide you'll see The Castle going for around 37 dollars. The same title in Big W is 12 or 13 bucks. There may be differences with buying capacity but there still...

I think you're overreacting a bit. I see nothing wrong with this thread whatsoever

Some 5AA caller reckons a traffic light that didn't change for 15 mins is to Pat Conlon's own fault

WHAT next?

seems like TT had a few dramas Thursday afternoon just after 5pm The 4.50pm 239 from Arndale (forget fleet number) broke down at the top of Churchill Rd. Seems like some vandals removed some bolts from the rear of the bus. This caused the bus to overheat and loose a water pump belt. Bet they were t...

It makes the year old scania in one of the photos look obsolete!

OUCH! what a total dick to even attempt it

When does the lawsuit against the owner of said escalator start?

Saw 2002/2108 heading out of Adelaide yard about 1425 with passengers on board. I'm not sure where it was headed but it appeared to be moving at under walking pace. Mechanical problems perhaps?

Is anyone selling ex SAR/CR working timetables?

I fully agree. Just make sure you all have change consisting only of 10c pieces!

Which buses are most commonly involved in these alleged incidents?

Catch a 155!

A 2 car jumbo flew past Islington today on some sort of test run around 1255. It appeared to be in admet livery

Good to see a bus driver with a sense of humour!
