PTA / Transperth & Private Observations - 2019

[Pinza]

Looking at my scribbled notes I think 1375 should’ve been 1725. I’ll check it out next week

[Pinza]

Just read my notes again and I ‘think’ 1375 should’ve been 1725. I’ll check it out again next week.

Has anyone seen 1503 recently?

I believe 1503 is still in service in Albany

Transdevs b8 rigid 2678 has AOA for the green tyre project.

Was already mentioned on the 26th of Feb.

Cheers!

For those not on social media 3091 has been extensively damaged by fire in Baldivis more than likely a write off

I doubt it's a write off. Yes it was heavily damaged, but appears to be mostly contained to the engine area. It's also a ten-month old artic and those are not cheap to replace. It'll be off-traffic for a while but I think we will see it again.

3091 is in service (not sure when it returned to service) but I saw it in action at Warnbro Train Station this afternoon.

It's been back about a month now.

1375 isn't a NH

Everything you listed at Shenton Park is in service, as is 1721, but everything else you listed is in storage or withdrawn.

Notably 1536 and 37 returned to service briefly at Canning Vale a couple weeks ago to presumably cover for 1486 and probably 87 which are being moved to Bunbury very soon, but looks like 1542/43 and the new B7 deliveries have meant they're no longer needed

Thanks for 1547, been wondering where that ended up

Have any other 14xx Volvo B7s been moved to Bunbury other than 1483 at this stage ?

1484&1486 are bunbury bound if not already there

[the c man]

2814,2815&2822 have been delivered to midvale. However been told 2822 won't be in midvale much longer going to another depot I'm guessing Canningvale. 2816 is rumoured to be going to midvale at this stage.

Another rail shutdown, another day out spotting rail replacement buses along the Freo line. 100% Swan this time, nothing too unusual except the single NH that came out to play!

Additionally, 1333, 1599, 1607 and 3023 were noted on standby/supervisor buses at Freo and in the city, but none saw service as far as I'm aware.

In other news, 2816, 2818, 2830 (!!!!) and a couple other newbies noted at Volvo's workshop this morning.

Happens more often than you think.

2822 is in service at Canning Vale, 1966 and 1894 are back from refurb.

Also spotted 1336 parked up at Karrinyup (along with 1327, 1541 and 47 as previously mentioned), which is a little surprising as I thought that one was still in service at Shenton Park (seeing as 1333 and 34 are still around).

3096 is also on holiday at Redcliffe, while 3017 has taken its place at Bayswater for now

[Zidanehartono]

2822 is in service at Canning Vale

I just saw it yesterday operating the 3:27PM 210T and even today when i was about to cross the road near Cannington Station which i do have a pic of it.

1965 and 1966 refurbished

[Squiddy]

1895 back from refurb

RCCTS2 (aka Dolphin 2) is also back.
