All you need to do is guess which bus this is... I merely provide the reply "higher" "lower" or "correct"


so... let's go!

Glad to see you having a go, Tas Bus Nut. Unfortunately there has never been a bus in Adelaide numbered 1544. What you are seeing is one of our classic MAN SL200 buses; still painted in its original silver livery.

Why would a Southlink bus be displaying "1H WOODVILLE", considering it was Torrens Transit providing the Outer Harbor subs.

would be Correct. Your turn, TT.

145?

I'm guessing this was a double division bus as all rail subs were meant to be low-floor?

I saw the STA-style desto there and thought it was one of The Mayor's history tours... And after that I saw the rail replacement sign next to it. :oops:

I was tossing up between 1888 and 145. Picked the right one.
I don't have any photos to go, so I guess that means it's open.

Actually, to Torrens' credit; I only ever recall one high floor bus on H1 services - over the whole period. This photo was a "mock-up" - the driver of the SL200 stopped in to Woodville for some reason; and the destination was quickly put up and a photo taken; as it never happened in real life.

Looks like us Croweaters haven't really caught onto this game yet! Have a go at this one. I've blurred the rego, rear desto and fleet numbers on the side, back, and air con.

I saw the "Hispacold" Aircon and forgot that some had been transferred to Southlink.. Noticing it was Mawson Lakes thought it may have been a bus on train subs.
