So they’re staying close to Leichhardt depot and their recharging point - what a surprise.
I haven’t seen them because I usually go through Lilyfield and Glebe on the tram, and when I use Parramatta Rd buses (413 461 480 483) rarely go past Camperdown. Those routes turn off Parramatta Rd in Glebe, so I don’t cross paths with them.
It’ll be interesting to see how they work out. They’ll be encountering some heavy traffic, and I reckon a lot of the battery charge will go on driving the A/C not the wheels. That’d be a reason in itself to do this trial in winter rather than summer - if you’re a battery bus vendor.
