This page features my collection of 1500-Series buses.
This series consists of buses operated in Perth by Swan Transit and Path Transit, and has Mercedes-Benz OC500LE CNGs, OC500LE CNG midis and 0405NH diesels. This series also has a number of regional NHs in a number of places operated by a variety of operators.
While I’ve made every effort to ensure the accuracy of the information presented here, sometimes I make mistakes and cannot guarantee that this information is 100% accurate. And as always, expect these photos to update from time to time as I take better ones while out and about!
