Photos around Phillip

[Sir Pompously]

Whilst waiting to head out on an 8 to Fyswhick, I decided to walk around and try and grab some photos and see if I could track down the MAN. Although 8 is a lucky number, yesterday was not lucky for me and I did not run into the MAN anywhere!


BUS-361 a Scania L94UB is laying over, ready to run a 818 School Bus Service. It is seen on Paramatta Street, Phillip


BUS-311 an Irisbus Agoraline is seen negotiating a round-a-bout on Athllon Drive outisde Marist College Canberra

I think the MAN is having a few teething problems but I am hoping it will be back on the road soon.

[Sir Pompously]

The MAN has been around, infact about every day. So it is just catching up with it that is the problem, as it is normally back in the depot by Nightfall!

[Snorzac]

Do you mean doing route services if so has it being to any intertown runs? If it's doing route services I will hunt it out on Thursday

[Sir Pompously]

It has been doing both, and has been for about a week or so.

[Snorzac]

COOL, I will keep an eye out for it

[bubzie]

it normally does a southbound 63 leaving woden at around 10am...i've seen it do that service..twice.

[Snorzac]

alright mod day buspedition now starting woden 1003am with the 63 followed by an intertown ride to belco movie and we'll take it from there

nice photos todd.

is it just me, or do not many of the Scanias have the inverted desto on school runs anymore?

[Snorzac]

that would have to be the first inverted desto i've seen in atleast a year maybe more.

[Busnerd]

School buses have always have inverted desto's on scanias, they used to have the side inverted too but apparently it was hard to read so it is normal on the side but still inverted on the front, which is a good idea and looks very nice imo

[Buzz Killington]

they dont always have it inverted on the front anymore. more often than not, they are not inverted.
