Had to take the train into the city yesterday and saw it in the yard looking like it’s been parted out or could be in refurb just wanted some clarification

An Irizar Century-bodied unit with Liberal AOA sighted on Roe Highway yesterday afternoon, don't have any more details as far as I'm concerned.

Thanks! Baby steps. The stops aren't on the map yet or a line definition under timetables or alerts.

Can't be long before we see the new rail and feeder timetables!

If it's in the DMU Shed and stowed on 1D, then it's most likely in for refurb
If it's not a ZF, take it back!

1418 seen 000 on Ocean Reef Road, this seems rather far north for a gas bus.

376 off service from Whitfords?

It was not a 376, it was 000. I would say I saw it as far north as Edgewater, which seems very unusual. I took photos, but I'm being told the file is too large (2.3MB)

It may have been 000, but Enviro was pointing out it may have completed a 376 prior (alternately it could've been bound for Whitfords to commence such a trip).

Not uncommon most likely would have been running out of service to either Warwick, Whitfords, Mirabella or Morley to do another run as either a 344, 371 & 376

I see what you are saying, now that I think about it, Ocean Reef road does go quite far east and does connect with multiple main roads. I had assumed Enviro was referring to some kind of 376 deviation, for some reason.

Not sure if it's old news but the sole Bustech VST unit operated by Carbridge has been sighted in service running FIFO COVID Test Shuttles.

Today there was one missing trip of Airport/Belmont bound 935 departing Kings Park at 1910. What was only meant to be a 6-minute wait for me turned out to be 20.

2035 on 206. It looks like it's definitely moved South.

Coincidentally Geraldton public buses are operated by Path Transit too.

It’s been a while for regional movements.
So far:
1656-1659 Perth>Albany
1442-1445 Albany>Port Hedland
2119-2122 in Perth getting refurbished.
What’s next?

2119-22 may be replacing NHs that are still out in the bush once they're done with refurb.

2880 seen at Whitfords yesterday, in standard Transperth corporate, stripped of all Joondalup CAT branding - no photos as my phone died unfortunately.
I'd post any important, bus-related links I had, but they're outdated anyways.
