Did the driver take a wrong turn at Gosford station???

I think repairs

Extremely unlikely!!! No factories on the Great Ocean Road!

More like a sales tour.

Wasn't one already seen on the road?? Please keep this thread for actual confirmed changes rather than guesses. So I can be sure when I am changing the fleet list.

I have 2 now 3 times confirmed on the board, this 43 or 48 has been painted i was speaking to Ray Parson about it, plus a friend i know at school who did work placement last week help paint it!!
No fleet number is on it yet still needs a few touch up!

A couple of things.
The new #95 demo unit was originally destined for red bus and has the red bus interior but powers that be did not want it.

Have found out to that #7, a raised deck Scania maybe leaving soon.

7 is withdrawn as told by a Driver.

Post by **Daniel** » Tue Dec 20, 2011 6:06 pm

The bus is still registered, so at this stage I'll keep it in the fleet pending and disposal details etc.

Does anyone have photos of the Red Bus Coaches. Heard a wisper there is another one on the way?

Looked like a new one heading North empty Friday passing mount white.
Not in blue livery. Would they still be purchasing in their old livery?

Post by **Daniel** » Sat Feb 18, 2012 2:15 pm

As it has been discussed many times previously, that only contract buses (read school and route buses) are subject to the new livery. The separate "coach" divisions of companies continue on as normal.

Should have mentioned it was a service bus CC body. Looked very shiny and new.

What was it a CB80 or 60? Might of had repairs done to it, because all new buses will be in the TNSW livery.

Thats what I thought re TNSW livery but it looked very clean new looking.
I imagine it was CB80 like the rest of thiers?? or did they have 60's

m/o 6234 · Post by **m/o 6234** » Sat Feb 18, 2012 11:17 pm

They have 5 evo 2's and 18 Cb80's (18th being a demo).

I saw the new Iveco #66 this arvo doing Route 26 to Wyong Hospital.

I think it's their first Iveco in TNSW colours. It looked fantastic.
