Does Adelaide need all that?

Lidcombe has a dedicated platform for Bankstown line services. Might be a problem with trains arriving having to cross over the down T3 to get to it?

would this be in breach of the contract by any chance?

Questions about the "legality" of operators using certain buses should not.

The reasons for operators using particular vehicles is not something that needs to be subject to inquisitions here.

There are regular updates on their facebook page.
They are still offering email updates on their website.

Could be hard to find here. Look on some UK enthusiast sites, but probably expensive.

In the meantime, get a good photograph of one, and get it printed on adhesive vinyl. Cut a base plate out of thin gauge aluminium to suit..

That link seems to refer to only one service, the daylight XPT from Melbourne.

So who might be the “registered owner” of the buses?
If it were the operators, what happens when buses are transferred from one to another? RMS treats this as a sale, and the “buyer” would have to pay stamp duty on its market value?

Trip Planner is great if you need to sort out a specific trip; like planning travel around an event.

Timetables give a much broader view of services; like planning an event around travel availability.

Does the lower section of the front sign scroll down through the various "via" points?

I drove mostly manual buses/ coaches for around 30 years.
Drivability varied by make/ model, even individual vehicles of the same type. Every day was a new experience until you got control of the beast.

There is route 305 and 358 going to the airport, and then the surrounding routes. T Neither of those routes service the airport. 305 only goes the Stamford Hotel in the peak hours, near the rail bridge, and the closest the 385 gets is Mascot Station. The 356 only services the Domestic terminals fro...

There is a turn back siding at Central past the platform. Would not hold up following trains.

ESR as far as I'm aware still has at least 10,000 people per hour capacity in peak as its frequency is driven by the southern half of T4, not ESR.

Can the ESR capacity be increased by having BJ-Central shuttles (there are turn back sidings both ends)?

The Freshies do have facilities for dual levelpp boarding and it is used in busy times. The Emeralds have provisions for two gangways, but apparently only one can be used while the Freshies have to share the wharves. Outside of summer weekends and school holidays, the Emeralds are usually capable of...

The Eastern Suburbs are pulling their weight with development. Look what has sprung up with the ESR, and now along the L3 line.

He apparently was a long time driver at STA Ryde. He seemed to have a permanent shift involving 513s from West Ryde to Carlingford via (the notorious) Dundas Valley housing commission area. "FERAL VALLEY" I think he "owned" one of the N&W Mercs for that run, and was quite vo...

Saddened to learn of the passing of the legendary “Captain CH”, Ray Boddenberg aka Rusty Williams. RIP.

I wonder if TfNSW will be smart enough to have a frequent bus service between Tallawong- Schofields- St Marys when the metro starts

I Information Paper: Currently, for train travel in or out of the Sydney CBD, the trip distance is measured as the distance from the tap-on station to a ‘gateway station’ (Central, Wynyard or Kings Cross depending on the line) plus a CBD increment of 3.21 km. This is a historical legacy of the pape...

The bus operators in Sydney operate concessions, not franchises. The term franchising is often used incorrectly. By their nature, franchisees bear revenue risk, concession holders only bear cost risk. But given that anti-privatisation was a key policy of the government during the last election camp...

Launceston has around 15 flights per day; will be interesting to see how WSI starts out. WSI would have a much larger catchment area.
