Yesterday John and Myself caught up with one of our favourite drivers, and BUS-991. Here are some photos from the day o BUS-991 (Which is now cleanskin, only one ad is left and that is on the rear window). Some of these are not the best, trying a few different angles

Two view's of the Brighter interior that the early PR100.3's have (Instead of the grey seats and grey panelling, this bus has pinky maroon paneling and brown/orange fabric)

The way it should be, BUS-991 is displaying 333 Intertown Express

I believe the sticker says what Martin said it said
It's there for the old radio network, a certain channel above the lake, another one below the lake. Luckily, thats not around anymore.
I never quite learned how some of those buttons worked. Would anyone care to explain to em what the P/R button does? And the * button?
They apparently dont do anything...or arent programmed to do anything
I wish that ACTION would bring the 333 back using the Artics. But they can't now because the Intertown is commited to accesible buses now :(
Oh no, they cant buy low floor high capacity buses...that means the 333 will never be back...
Or hang on...they had a tender out with interest for high capacity low floor buses including artics and rear steer 14.5's so one would assume they have something in mind...
It has been said once we get enough low floor high capacity vehicles, the high floor artics will be solely used for school runs.
