Spotted 710 with an experimental Destination file inserted, it appears to be the same one installed earlier last year, namely the large "ALBURY" on one of the destinations, it also had a school bus desto where the number was on the right instead of the left.

Re: Dysons Group Discussion Thread - 2022
Spotted 859 and 724 with new Scrolling Destos for TFNSW runs, I'm not too sure if those shifts are being changed and that the school run is seperate because I saw 812 yesterday on the 9:15 E

Re: Dysons Group Discussion Thread - 2022
I saw 859 today operating school Bus 6 with the regular School Bus Desto, Turns out that they were just additional destos.
Not all of Dysons' Wodonga buses are currently trackable, As far as I'm aware, only 915 and 916 are trackable, I was told 454 is also trackable and maybe 460, 462 and 463 and possibly 132. 1068 and 1069 are also TFNSW contracted. 710, 711, 724, 725, 812, 815, 859, 883, 938, 1022, 1076, 1117 and 1198 I believe currently don't have the trackers as far as I'm aware despite all of them spending time in NSW

Re: Dysons Group Discussion Thread - 2022
Spotted 876 in Wodonga yesterday with NSW school signage. Curious if it's a Wodonga, Wang or Moama vehicle, Definitely won't be Deniliquin as it still has the Vic Rego.

Re: Dysons Group Discussion Thread - 2022
Hi. Couple of years since I visited this forum having retired and moved to Traralgon. Recently noticed a couple of Dyson's buses bearing different colored livery, although in the same style. One was in blue, the other in a different green to the usual. Has the company embarked on a new policy away from the traditional green?
Re: Dysons Group Discussion Thread - 2022
You might be seeing buses acquired from other operations as Dysons have taken over both Little's of Sale and Wynne's of Maffra in recent months. Whilst buses are gradually being repainted into full Dyson livery some will still be in the previous colours with Dyson stickers.

Re: Dysons Group Discussion Thread - 2022
915 and 916 are now live trackable, spotted the Dysons Public Routes on Anytrip.
938 and 916 swapped runs also to allow The NSW routes to be live trackable.

Re: Dysons Group Discussion Thread - 2022
Could someone please tell me where the new Dysons buses are located? The fleet list says Bundoora but I've seen #1265 & #1268 on routes 555/6 during the week.
Re: Dysons Group Discussion Thread - 2022
I dont think the on line list discriminates between Bundoora and Reservoir any more. If you do the drop down box for Reservoir it only lists one Rosa. And really Reservoir is a sub depot of Bundoora rather than a stand alone like the country depots.

Re: Dysons Group Discussion Thread - 2022
Thank you for clarifying. That would also explain why some other Bundoora listed buses are operating on Reservoir routes and vice versa.

138 recently spotted operating school runs in Wodonga, still has the AOA for it being a mobile vaccination bus.

Re: Dysons Group Discussion Thread - 2022
A few of the older buses were on routes 517/566 today. The ones I saw were numbers 305, ex East West 349, 359 & 391 but there would have been more.
