Re: Brisbane Transport Observations

It doesn't have to mean anything. You can pretty much put up whatever you like when you're not in service and nobody gives a sh*t!

So does this mean the City Circle buses (1520-1523) are going elsewhere?

Re: Rail & Private Operator Observations

Ah ok. I didnt realise it was a piecart. Maybe it does the Club Banora-Twin Towns run. The same driver used to do that shuttle in between his main run Labrador-Twin Towns & return. That was 10 years ago though. Dunno if its still the same.

Re: Red & White Leyland Tiger

I was going to buy that bus through Bustech but as usual, Surfside wanted too much for it. It had had a bit of a refurb though and was in translink colours. Looks good in red and white.
