Transit Systems BYD BC12 Volgren Optimus 1301
Sydney based regular contributor Nidhi Sharma was non-plussed by the red sticker in the windscreen above the driver proclaiming this as a new bus. It, 1301 (MO1301), is one of nearly one hundred Volgren Optimus bodied China built BYD electric BC12 buses entering service with Transit Systems this year. The company was amongst the forefront of electric buses in Sydney with nearly twenty Gemilang bodied BYD, followed by ninety Custom Denning Elements, so far. There are also 25 Fotons which arrived last year and three BCI Cityriders inherited from Ingleburn with the franchise changes. Of course there are a lot of Volgren Optimus bodied diesel buses amongst the various Sydney operators so this BYD does not stand out as much as a Custom Denning might. Somewhat strangely the fleet numbers trample over Transit Systems' Custom CB80 bodied Volvo B7RLE buses delivered around 2013 with non matching regos.
