Sunday's replacement buses were a slightly different fleet mix to
Saturday.
Most in evidence were Sita, but more low floor vehicles and none of
the older ex-RAAF Volvos evident on Saturday.
Other fleets providing noted were US, Bell Transit, Eastrans,
Westrans, Tullamarine, and Kastoria. No Venturas noted, possibly
because of Rail replacement commitments.
The new curves on the South East corner of Malvern and Glenferrie
Roads are now in place. However the overhead has yet to be modified
for the additional curves, so Malvern cars on Route 72 will still
need to shunt west of Glenferrie Road when running out/in. There
were several new traction poles planted.

Had a look at the tram work and bus replacement services this
morning.
