This looks like a picturesque route. A dream for a driver. Solid bus.

Great Video! Lovely view at 9:21. I am sure drivers that get allocated to shifts passing/terminating at Milsons Point would be quite happy, especially with the amazing view. :)

Great video its funny how the CB60 and volgren CR228L both feature the B12BLE chassis and are the same age with the CB60 actually have a few newer yet the volgren has the modern dash and the CB60 doesnt

It's probably because ex STA has started getting B12/CB60 way earlier than they did B12/CR228L (2003 vs 2005 I think), the order design may have meant it was harder to integrate a new dash until when they did the EvoIIs

What route are you on?

[@BritishRailClass350]

I think he’s in a Millson Point station so might be Transit system or Keolis Downer
