PTA / Transperth & Private Observations - 2021

Re: PTA / Transperth & Private Observations - 2021
I do feel as more 18xx gassies from Malaga are getting withdrawn they may end up with more 14xx from Welshpool if newer B8s are delivered to WP, though this is a speculation and shouldn't be guaranteed.
Re: PTA / Transperth & Private Observations - 2021
yeah or maybe the new b8 will delivery to bayswater and gas to malaga. (remember that they plan to reduce some gas facilities at depo) i probably think in morley contract they decided to just use 1 depo and remove cng facilities.
however this is just pure speculation

Re: PTA / Transperth & Private Observations - 2021
Yes, then the 20xx OCs displaced a 19xx to Freo which killed a 1200.

Re: PTA / Transperth & Private Observations - 2021
There use to be a 220F which terminated in Victoria Park, that was more often than not run by CV or BH. It appears to have been removed, however.pasha241 wrote: ↑Tue Jul 06, 2021 7:15 pmmaybe because school holidays. sometimes on school holidays CV/BH run afternoon Peak 220F. because one time i saw 1683 doing it.Off The Rails wrote: ↑Tue Jul 06, 2021 6:45 pm Odd sighting today - Canning Vale's 2502 seen on the 1630 220F to Armadale.

Re: PTA / Transperth & Private Observations - 2021
yeah alao i remember when 220 use to have Short journey to Carousel (before is 213) off peak weekday to make it 30 min frequency which run by CV or BH. However it was removed in 2018 due to low patronage because duplicate of 930 and 960.Off The Rails wrote: ↑Wed Jul 07, 2021 12:13 amThere use to be a 220F which terminated in Victoria Park, that was more often than not run by CV or BH.

Re: PTA / Transperth & Private Observations - 2021
It would have been 930 that was duplicated between VPTS and Westfield Carousel.
As for the old 213, it used to share runs with 202/203. This was back when Swan Transit also controlled Kalamunda.

Re: PTA / Transperth & Private Observations - 2021
PATH transit Malaga B7 1462 has returned from Refurbishment today, this marks the start of the Volvo B7R refurb program.
Re: PTA / Transperth & Private Observations - 2021
Anything different or new? I also find it odd that they skipped the diesel OC500sWoolies_truck wrote:PATH transit Malaga B7 1462 has returned from Refurbishment today, this marks the start of the Volvo B7R refurb program.

Re: PTA / Transperth & Private Observations - 2021
would that mean now that they skip 2200 because yesterday i still saw 2200 not refurbished.
although tbh i think some 1462 and early 23x really need refurbished even when i caugh 1462 4 years ago the interior really need refurbished (although maybe this problem is more of how the depo clean their fleet rather than fleet age).
i am actually interesting what the change of volvo refurbish look like (beside the placement of transperth logo)

i think the reason probably the fact that the diesel oc500le was a region bus and maybe the transperth bus is more urgency to refurbished.

Re: PTA / Transperth & Private Observations - 2021
I'm pretty sure there was some regional NHs that hadn't been refurbished throughout their lifetime.
Re: PTA / Transperth & Private Observations - 2021
2096, 2097 and 2200 are the only remaining OC gassies that haven't been/aren't in the process of refurbishment.
Honestly can't imagine 1462 being much different other than the updated livery.
Re: PTA / Transperth & Private Observations - 2021
From the pic I’ve seen of 1462 they still haven’t repositioned the ‘Bus operated by xxx’ decal further forwards to avoid it being obscured, so give it a few weeks and it’ll be covered by adverts, just like some of the recent refurbed OC’s and Western suburbs B8’s.

I had a quick look at my timetable database and those short 220 trips were deleted 3 years ago (wow time flies!)Off The Rails wrote: ↑Wed Jul 07, 2021 12:13 am There use to be a 220F which terminated in Victoria Park, that was more often than not run by CV or BH.

Yesterday I saw 2025 doing 930F along Albany Hwy in Cannington. Looks like 2024 and 2025 have jumped from Karrinyup to SR.

3239 has been registered.
I'd post any important, bus-related links I had, but they're outdated anyways.

Re: PTA / Transperth & Private Observations - 2021
One bus being sent to Welshpool does not imply anything about where future deliveries will end up. Perhaps those two B8s were sent to Kala/WP for the wide variety of running those two depots do compared to Morley?Enviro 500 wrote: ↑Mon Jul 12, 2021 11:18 pm
If you say so.
Anyway, it implies that B8s 2790 onwards will be sent to RC/WP, whose resources will be channelled to Malaga to replace the retiring OCs.
Re: PTA / Transperth & Private Observations - 2021
Saw 103 doing a 20, could be back at Malaga.
Re: PTA / Transperth & Private Observations - 2021
Was in Midvale today not sure which one it is but saw an NH on the back fence
