You said it got towed to Port Depot?

That doesn't mean it will necessarily be off the road for a long time

How can you tell on the app where the shift comes from?

Whats "better" is entirely subjective

Those problems would have been solve with the introduction of headway managed routes under the proposed new network earlier in the year

How did they ever catch the right bus before that!?

The problem was when plain buses were used on M routes. Passengers would be watching for a red bus, and could miss the service if it wasn't. Not just pensioners either.

All the more reason to get rid of it!

Is there a "culture" in Melbourne where private operators have multiple depots of each depot having their own set of routes, even though other routes may pass close by or share termini?

I'm sure they, and all the Adelaide Metro operators, know exactly how many buses they need and take off road vehicles and retirements into account

Just rail or route work?

Are you sure? I saw all those buses heading north towards Elizabeth Saturday morning, but spotted 1217 on a St. Agnes shift this morning.

Where is Edinburgh West?

Glendenning buses have been running the 795 since 2013

What are you talking about??

Yawn indeed. We get it.

Obviously never caught a Tangara in Sydney..

It's not hard to just put a quick one liner about what the bus is, where it is, and where it's been. But then again some people are too lazy to do that

I drove a semi-automatic for Transdev out of South Gravel in the last few days of 2014

Thanks so much for the captions, as usual, which provide no information whatsoever

Those buses are not all at Port Depot, and 275 is an 18.280

Not all buses have been renumbered that way

You have overlooked 2 important facts-firstly they have to walk from the Flinders Medical Centre several hundred meters to the new station,they then have to wait for their train, which will only run at 30 minute frequencies. I mentioned a generous transfer allowance and showed that it was still qui...

A G22X from Stop 27 Main South Rd at 8:02 in the current timetable takes 37 minutes to reach Stop W2 in King William St.

"The train journey will be 24 minutes"

Even if you add a 10 minute walk and transfer in, a passenger will reach North Tce before they would on the bus if they take the train.

This new journey will take them up to 30 minutes longer-so much for Mr Knolls-faster, direct services. You keep saying this, but I can't work that out from the information released? Where are the timetables you are using to support this? Surely the train has to be quicker than sitting in the Goodwo...

Sending CNG buses up the freeway?

What does the bus type have to do with enabling through running?
