What bus did you get today? (2007-2018)

[smitho]

Today:
Speedy 719 and a sprightly 804 (going VERY well right now)

Yesterday:
Freshly detailed 702 and a dubious 843!

[Buzz Killington]

a dubious 843!

That's what you get for taking the ex-Belco buses!

[Bus 400]

Lost my list of buses for today, but a break down on my TransPerth travels is:
2xVolvo diesels
1xRenault PR100.2
1xMAN Artic
A number of diesel & CNG Mercedes
1xB Series Train
1xA Series Train

Runs included, Cooloongup to Rockingham service (& return), Mandurah line, 60 to Morley, run then to Mirrabooka, then back to Perth, out & back to Victoria Park Transfer Station, out & back to Alexander Heights, Fremantle line & a 825 to Rockingham.

Today I managed to ride every route that solely services the Rockingham area. I started at 06:30 & finished at 16:50 & even though I organized my "shift" last night I didn't get the same bus/driver more then once (except for the terminus services that brought me back to the train stations).

Had 804 again yesterday; a real beauty to drive.

[Snorzac]

804 was going really well just before they withdrew that, would be a great preservation project if it is still for sale.

[Bus 400]

Yesterday I flew back:
QANTAS
Longreach (Boeing 747) (Perth to Sydney)
I got to have a go at a passenger for sitting in my seat, with my seat being 26D (which is next to 26C). But he had 26G, eventually he worked out the alphabet. Then just as we pushed back, we pulled back in & had to let an ill passenger off. This same passenger had problems with her bag going through security. We ended up getting into Sydney 20 minutes late, so I had to make a dash to my next gate.

Unknown Boeing 737 (Sydney to Canberra)
This one had the noisiest brakes I've ever heard. When we stopped the whole cabin rocked backwards & forwards. It felt like we struggled to pull up at Canberra Airport.

Sometimes I think they use the Canberra routes for their L plate (or P plate) plane drivers....
