Re: PTA / Transperth & Private Observations - 2019
Spotted TP0100 just after 6pm tonight doing 935F on Alexander Rd Belmont
Never seen this series this far East - always see them on 960’s in Vic Park
Was it change-off or is it always regular service at that time?

Re: PTA / Transperth & Private Observations - 2019
I agree on that too especially when finding TP1542/43 or the white destos.[/quote]Canning Vale buses are notoriously difficult to track down since they cover such a wide area.
I saw 1542 Tuesday or Wednesday on Albany Hwy (driving past my workplace near Kent St), so either doing 177/78/79 or 220

Evening all
Spotted 1919 on Bannister Rd, turning right to Willeri Dr, Canning Vale this morning, and as I turned the other way, saw 2136 turning left into Hurley St, from Bannister Rd, heading to Omnibus Services, I presume.

Hi all
Anyone know the fleet numbers of the Renault artic and Merc NH at back fence rear of Canning Vale depot?
(Renault 715 is still there, these 2 are parked next to it)
Rather curious why a "silver top" is on the back fence too
