Ok, here we go, a big thanks to a certain ACTION driver for taking out 990 today, here are a few photos from todays journey.

990 at Cooleman Court prior to commencing a 27.

It turns Green!!!

A beat up and battered plate.

City West, two AOAs side by side.

Rears.

Rear of 990.

969's rear.

Not the best photos, but I intend to get better shots of each bus.
Comments welcome!

Generally speaking, the bus is great! The interior is unique, the bus has lots of power, and is harmonious. Love it!

990 looks better than 982 after seeing it drive past my house and these pictures, I love the doors, they look cool. There it goes again on a 13 this time.

990 looks fantastic!

Great photos John. Early contender for Photo of the Month! Look out Todd...

I don't think so, wait until Todd gets his shots of 990. I don't like to blow my own trumpet however

Very nice photos Mr Tokaji. It looks as though 990 has not had a repaint, just a sticker job.

Ba ha ha ha. Sorry, but yeah.

It is a sticker job, as has 982, and all of the ACTION Going your way AOAs.

Lol, knew it was a sticker job, but just saying they have not looked to have bothered to repaint it out of its previous livery judging by the front which is still the old AGL AOA's day front.
