The same ones that are not a problem on the Captain Cook ferries - Camellia Railway Bridge and Gasworks Bridge.

Alright, I got Mobi Info Edit to work and I can now create outfiles. Another question, when I write a new outfile to the ICU 400, does it wipe all of the destinations in the current program? The unit I have still has a lot of the original destination blinds on it and I would like to keep them if po...

Re: Parramatta City Council "The Loop" 1/9/08

These Parra Loop buses were quite a unique chapter in bus operation history well worth adding there. Remnants of the branding still exist on what used to be The Loop route. Got quite a surprise to see seats outside Parramatta RSL with The Loop branding on - still - long after the branding disappear...

Re: Tangara upgrade contract awarded to UGL

If a mistake has been made, they've made it two days in a row. I've never seen any of their previous test runs do a little trip like Ashfield to Central, or Lindfield to Central before. The B sets had special passenger carrying journeys as well towards the end of their testing. I got on one. Lookin...
