Title: Brisbane Buses-Part 1 of 2
Post by: CBRFlyer on July 18, 2010, 09:51:18 PM
Here are my bus pictures from Brisbane, I took these in between the Cultural Centre Bus Station and the underground bus Station, not sure of the street names, but I am sure Todd or Mat can enlighten us. Part one is made up of pictures of low floors, part two will mostly be the same with the odd high floor, enjoy!

The bus station is Queen Street Bus Station. The one next to it is King George Square bus station. Nice photos, some of them not the best out there (Over exposure here and there, abit of blur) but most are pretty good. Love those MAN NG313 artics and their fully sik turbo.

I like the brisbane livery but not exactly the kite.

I am a fan of the kite, as it symbolises 'clean' air, being natural gas and all. G1601 is the only MAN NG313 with the kite on it (Well it was last I saw it) and it looks great with it on as it snakes both sections of the vehicle.

Pretty good, clear desto graphics on these nice Brisbane buses - although the route numerals look a little squashed up by ACTION standards.
