Since when did anyone not reuse old fleet numbers? Generally that’s only done if there’s a fatality (eg 2724, now 2751)

That seems logical,but with DPTI one can never be sure of their thinking?
Re: November/December 2020 SA Transport Observations
Does anyone know why TT fleet numbers don’t really go above xx89?

Mercs 1390,1391
BusTechs 1990-1999
And I’m assuming more BusTechs 1090-1099 in the next few months.

K230s 1403-1406 were originally numbered 1290-1293, until it was realised the rest of the K230s wouldn't fit into the 12xx range. There were also some 149x K230s, which got renumbered after being transferred to SouthLink.

Re: November/December 2020 SA Transport Observations
Noticed that the timetables are out for the week between Christmas and New Year. Two routes that will be running got my attention that normally do not run - G40M from Golden Grove to Tea Tree Plaza, and G30 running all stops. In the afternoons they will be displaying G30 from the city. In the morning, they will be changing route numbers to G10C at stop 24A.
Are there any others that I missed?

And one can expect more overcrowding, especially on 'H30' services which are notorious for such during this period, to the extent where drivers request a double division at a moment's notice.
The department hasn't learned a thing unfortunately.
