Fleet / Re: Bus withdrawals: 2024-25
Last post by L94UBbusfan - December 01, 2025, 10:21:22 PM
The recent withdrawals of 351 and 366 have brought the Scania L94UB CNG fleet down to just 4 buses remaining in service and has also marked the end of 2 important parts of the L94 CNG fleet in Canberra. 351's withdrawal marks the end of any form of the Hanover flipdot display, and both buses mark the end of the Euro III Scania OSC9/G01 CNG engine. Won't be very long before all the L94s are gone  :'(  :'(  :'(

Routes and Timetables / Re: Molonglo Bus Network

Quote from: L94UBbusfan on November 30, 2025, 06:24:39 PMDuring the Gas Bus Farewell Tour yesterday we drove down Stella Young Way which seems ready for buses with several houses popping up recently and the 67 bus route was already programmed into the bus destination boards, although this may have just been for the tour. The 67 route could definitely be introduced next network update, just without the Yami Lester Way section for the time being (which would mean it would have to double back on Denman Prospect Shops like the 80 does with Lanyon Marketplace). Although the introduction of the 67 all depends on demand and bus availability.

All destos from the Gas Bus tour yesterday were programmed in specifically for the day. The Denman Prospect photo stop destos were not based off any official plans or whatnot - they were purely a case of "what if?"

609 (30)
814 (23)
464 (R2)
351 (R4) - oldest bus in the TC fleet, geez the ZF sounds great.

388 (R5)
467 (R2)

Surprisingly out of the 19 buses I caught this week I only experienced 1 failed tap on (today on 691). The Yutongs (especially the Woden ones) seem to be the buses with the most reader issues, every second Yutong from that bunch I see has an out of order p*****d.

Oh and also..
