[QLD] Brisbane Transport, Logan City Bus Service and Park Ridge Transit

[Sir Pompously]

Hello Boys and/or Girls,

Here is my third and final transport related series of my 'vacation' to Queensland. These photos are of Brisbane Transport, Logan City Bus Service and Park Ridge Transit all found in Brisbane.

Park Ridge Transit


A Park Ridge Transit MAN SL252 HiCom approaching Cultural Centre Busway Station. I was shocked to learn (According to Bus Australia Fleetlists) these are 2008 Bodied vehicles, they look so much older! The HiCom body is a Malaysian (Don't quote me on that) Built Body

Logan City Bus Service


Logan City Bus Service 124 CBS is a Volvo B12BLE with a Bustech VST body is seen on a 555 to Logan Hyperdome (Yes they have a Hyperdome). This bus is in the Generic Translink Livery and is one of the newest in the LCBS fleet.

Brisbane Transport


MAN NG313 G1609 with a Custom Coaches CB60EvoII Body is seen on Adelaide Street next to Brisbane Square on a P137. I believe the P137 is Prepay only

Now you're speaking my language, some nice buses there, love the Oranas and those Austral buses.

With that MAN, I highly doubt it's a 2008 body, especially if it's a MAN SL252, which ceased existance in the late 90's. I think someone has made a slight error there, more likely a 1998 body.

Fantastic photos though, lovely variety, and some nice buses there.

Well there you go! Obviously a typo on their fleet list.
