I saw the same bus on Springfield rd Nunawading on tuesday 25/1.It was an all white scania L94UB with red Skybus lettering on the sides.

Hey guys, I read with interest the changes happening to these routes and would like to know are these the same changesthat were in the Greenfields one proposed by Transdev last year?So Sunshine depot will provide buses for 216 & 220 to city and the 429,and Keysborough to do the southern part.Wil...

Thanks for the replies guys,i forgot about the Optares,do they suffer the same aircon issues though.

Hey all, Slightly old topic i know but why were the so called "Toaster Buses",Enterprise Designline buses actually withdrawn when they seem to run seem to do very well in the UK? Is it still the mentality that exists in transport in Melbourne in particular that if something is different to...

Hey all, Reading about these extra services makes me laugh.As a very very frequent user of these roads around the area for the last 9 years there is no point putting extra services on without fixing up the road infrastructure first.The traffic volumes in this area are atrocious at any time of the da...

Hey all, They already put a stop to the new terminus that was supposed to go in late last year,so once again PT and it's passengers suffer for the car,just ridiculous and pathetic.I f the terminus can't go there then extend the line across the road and up to end of Turner st.Job done. :) :o

Why not just run the route services with Optare Solos which would be adequate.You also need to make easily accessible for the elderly that go to the shops every week,if you do that you would probably increase the patronage as alot of them may choose the bus instead of driving and trying to find a pa...

Thanks for that much appreciated.Also isther any news on a report of a second big buy out or takeover that is potentially happening soon?

Does anyone have any photos or info about their new buses, namely the King Longs and what routes they run on and the livery also please......Also on another note some pics of the new Ventura ex NT Buslink units and are these route service buses or just rail?

Thanks for the replies regarding my query on the Transdev allocations,i didn't realize that everything is so complicated now as far as bus fleet allocations go.Can we maybe have the on paper base allocations then of what is supposed to be at each depot even though the reality is different sometimes,...

Will this mean that there will be transfers between these depots as well,the same as the eastern depots?...Also on another note is the bus fleet list page part of this forum,if no who runs it?...The Transdev page does not mention Thomastown depot and it's allocation or Sunshine depot and it's alloca...

Thanks Craig, any news on the other takeover/major announcement that i have heard about?

Thanks for that Mitch,are we likely to see any significant changes as a result of this takeover?Also i have heard/seen reports of another major announcement due shortly regarding another major player in the Melbourne bus industry...another takeover perhaps?

This is only the Sunshine depot and routes,not the Kastoria/Mitchell transit side of the business is this correct?Also does this mean that we may see route changes and so on.

This is my first post to this forum which i have been following for a long time now,i am based in Melbourne and it is a great source of info on various topics including interstate happenings...especially bus allocations and bus sales between companies,stuff you don't normally hear about. I have hear...

The 19 was chosen for the D2's because it is one of the busiest routes and also because of the lack of curves.Also once the new linked route 8/55 which i have heard will be renumbered route 8 there will be D1's running on the old 55,so Flemington rd at least will have a partial low floor sevice from...
