Re: PTA / Transperth & Private Observations - 2021
Again, as per usual, this is unknown to most outside the industry. Only time will tell which three will be prepared to be sent out. It might not be a 2100 or 2200 either, it could potentially be a 2300.
Transperth routes grouped by contract area can be found here. Current as at 2/11/2020.

Why not 1400's or 1600's in the Volvo's, pretty much anybody's guess until know for certain
Looking to getting more Transperth bus, train and ferry models made up through Transit Graphics.

Re: PTA / Transperth & Private Observations - 2021
It could be due to their age. The ones that were sent out to Bunbury and Kalgoorlie are among the oldest Volvos. I'm not expecting an Optimus one to be deployed to the bush at this stage.Merc1107 wrote: ↑Wed Feb 17, 2021 8:22 pmIs there any reason specifically for the 2100 or 2200s being stated?TransRegional wrote: ↑Wed Feb 17, 2021 8:12 pm

There's no indication that Carnarvon's NHs are going anywhere anytime soon, and when they eventually do nobody here can say what will replace them. Same goes for any other region so TransRegional, can you please stop posting the same questions every other day?
Or perhaps people can stop replying with wild speculation and guesses...?

Re: PTA / Transperth & Private Observations - 2021
Yes, I think that's what those ex. Karrinyup OCs are doing down at Southern River. Have also heard 3007 and 3026 are presently (or were) up at Karrinyup.
Re: PTA / Transperth & Private Observations - 2021
I think 3007 and 3026 is at mt claremont, saw them do 950 earlier

Re: PTA / Transperth & Private Observations - 2021
My suspicion is it is a temporary arrangement while the Fremantle line is running a reduced service and the 700 School Special is operating.
Re: PTA / Transperth & Private Observations - 2021
It’s temporary for Cottesloe line rail and yes they have been moved drove past SR this morning

I think the last Coachair unit at Malaga was 1875 (midi). All others came with Thermo Kings.

All of the SR buses are present and accounted for more than likely would have been a PATH buspasha241 wrote:i think one of SR gas that still had coachair unit (1599-1627) on loan to karrinyup saw it on Beach rd near Warwick shop can't see the number and what route they run.
