I believe 3427-34 are at Beckenham replacing 1692-9 that have gone to Welshpool in exchange for 1427-34 going to Gosnells

This afternoon I saw 1885 operating 72T towards EQBS

This afternoon I saw 1885 operating 72T towards EQBS

It has been at Welshpool for nearly a month now, swapped with 3385 which is now at Bayswater.

3300 on Red CAT. Didn't know Freo also does Perth CAT runs on weekends.

[Off The Rails]

They don't. A regular bus is sent to Claisebrook from Fremantle due to extra capacity and not enough buses. It was 3299 a few weeks ago, 2999 before that.

Cheers!

Is that true that some of the 22xx and 24xx volvo optmuis body buses are moving to southern river and welshpool to replace the gas buses or will all the 22xx series volvo optmuis body buses be staying at karrinyup till retirement and if they are staying till retirement does that mean welsphool and southern river will get the new buses 34xx and 35xx to replace the gas buses

[Off The Rails]

If anyone had the answer to that, the company/ies social media policies would prohibit them from discussing it.

Cheers!

4-car A series on the Joondalup/Mandurah lines this afternoon

[Bus Suggestions]

As far as I can tell, 2x 4-car sets on Whitfords-Cockburn W shuttles, after 2 B-Series sets somehow made it onto the Victoria Park shuttle.

[TP1462]

Set 111 ran through to Yanchep today

Nothing noteworthy, has been there for over a month now alongside its sister units.

I heard last month that 2890-92 may already be at Jandakot. Wonder which other ones are also there. Also, is there a permanent fleet or is it rotational like Nowergup and Pinjarra?

Saw 2233 on a route 463 Yesterday on Grand BLVD in Joondalup and also saw 2247 on a route 461 on Shenton Ave Currambine Yesterday so has 2247 been moved from Karrinyup to Joondalup and has 2233 been moved from Mandurah to Joondalup aswell

[Off The Rails]

I can guarantee you didn't see 2233, rather you saw 2133. 2247 should also be at Karrinyup, with the Joondalup and Marmion contract being operated as one mega contract for efficiency in runs.

Cheers!

I Can definitely tell you it was 2233 i saw on a route 463 and it must have moved to swan Joondalup from Transdev Mandurah and i saw 2247 on a route 423 this morning so 2247 must still be at karriynup don't know what it was doing at Joondalup on Friday

2247 probably at Joondalup on a change off. Also, like OTR said, Joondalup and Marmion (along with Claremont) are operated as a mega contract area like Canning and Southern River.

Saw 1229 again on a route 355 from Ellenbrook to Whitfords again on Wednesday. Followed it nearly all the way from Main Street Ellenbrook outside Ellenbrook Secondary College to Whitfords so has 1229 been moved from Karrinyup to Ellenbrook

it was probably a change off, it wasn't in ellenbrook depot today. Only nh ellenbrook has is 1571

So Does that Mean that both Karrinyup and Ellenbrook Depots do mixed runs on route 355 from whitfords to ellenbrook

[Merc1107]

Presumably the bus was changed off at Whitfords.

[HL7619]

Presumably the bus was changed off at Whitfords.

So that makes sense that 1229 was changed of at Whitfords so it would have been doing a 44x route before it arrived at Whitfords then it went into the waiting bay and maybe swapped drivers and then did a 355 route to Ellenbrook

Both Swan and Path are running the Stadium Event 651 service this afternoon.
