CityGlider artics

Post by Noel »

I am absolutely obsessed with how good these beasts look. Here's a selection of the artic fleet that operates on the blue CityGlider. All are Volvo B8RLEA with Volgren Optimus bodywork operated by Transport for Brisbane.

The Blue Glider wrap is very attractive and really suits the Optimus body of the B8. Having driven B8 artics elsewhere, they're also a lot of fun when setup right - quite different to the rigid counterparts.

By the looks of things, you passed through Brisbane during the recent wet weather?

Unfortunately yes, I got caught up in the floods trying to get back to Sydney. My entire visit didn't have a single day of sunshine :(

Sorry to hear, and hope you're safe.

Thanks for these shots, too.

Great Glyder shots. I'll be in Brisbane in April 24 and intend to ride the Glyders.
