Today's West Australian shows a CR228 B7 supposedly used to ferry Afghan refugees.

It’s actually a B12 they were using artics for the transfer so they could carry more pax whilst maintaining social distancing and meeting all Covid requirements

Well, yes, but also no. 1667 was one of the buses they used along with a couple artics

Yep the latest cascade saw 2984 go to Rocky, which displaced 2252 to Swan, 2093 to Rocky, 1974 to Freo which replaced 1250

btw spaking of all capital letter did you mean only "not in service" desto (like SWan pre 2017 desto) or whole desto (destinantion place) is return to pre 2015 transdev desto?

because last week i saw that too on freo. However i only saw that on freo bus, Rocky bus still use old desto however i am not sure today is the rocky and mandurah bus change also or not. Also, i only seen it on flip dot desto not the white desto

As far as I know the 'Not in service' text on all Transdev buses have been changed. Here's an example:

[pasha241]

saw 2027 doing 990. before i thought this bus is move to SR along with 2028. or it never move to SR and only 2028 move there.

Haven't seen 2027 in the south yet. But I have taken 2025 on 206 and spotted 2028 leaving Thornlie station.

[Squiddy]

Yep 2027 never moved to SR

[komen_413]

It will probably move to SR once more 16xx OCs are withdrawn from service along with the 2030s series moving down there too when the time comes.

[TP1462]

1600-01, 03-09 & 11-14 regos all expire on at the end of next month so we could see another batch of Karrinyup OCs replace that batch 1615 & up have all had their regos extended until end of June next year
