New to Carbridge Perth Airport (well about two weeks ago), #62 - A King Long. (Forget which one it is with the front badge, they all look the same to me)

I have a photo that I snapped quickly which I'll post up, someone should know what it is.

Hey guys,

I have been looking at your fleet list, and I noticed something. I don't think it's quite complete. I have a source from inside the company and lets just say they running more than 57 busses.

Nice to be new around here. Looking forward to your replies.
love life love low floors!:D

Welcome! The fleet list is complied from our own personal observations usually. It's difficult to find the whole fleet sometimes especially operating in secure environments, such as airports. If your source can contribute any additional buses, we sure would appreciate it! Thanks.

Recent buses this year for Carbridge Perth include

21 which is now registered on WA TC plates as TC7056 and arrived about six months or so ago.
24 7735AO which I'm unsure of its new rego arrived sometime this year too,

And a very recent bus

Ex (5) 1636AO Irisbus Agoraline / Custom Coaches
Echuca-Moama Transit / Newton's Bus Service, Rochester

No fleet no or new rego yet.

DUO buses are also now apart of the fleet. No ID on what there is ATM.

A few more updates/corrections for Carbridge in Perth based on observations and from other people.

#24 re-registered as TC7054.
#60's WA rego is TC6855.

1636AO Irisbus Agoraline is fleet no. #67 in the fleet. This one should be re-registered soon too.

And also livery updates.

50-57 are in Perth Airport "Connect" orange livery. 28, 29 are in "White" while 67 still retains its former livery.
