Great shot - very crisp and sharp. The interchange at Box Hill does provide good lighting for night shots, but is terrible during the day.

I rode the last full length trip to Mordialloc ex Box Hill at 20:30 - run by #653.

Great pic btw. Hope I didnt get in the way of your shot of the 20:30 trip - didn't realise you were there until the bus left the interchange. :oops:

Kind Regards

I arrived to Box Hill at 20:25 and saw someone was taking a photo of 653.

Hi there, here are 2 shots of 882 at Oakleigh Station after completing the last 700 service departing Mordialloc
882 was the only Ventura liveried Bus on 700 on the last day

Looks like a 3sec time exposure or somewhere about there? Night shots rock.
Happy Gunzelling and remember, "Go By Rail!"

The driver can turn the light off if they don't want problems with reflection or glare.
