The Queanbeyan Age has the enthralling news that the name of the founder is coming off Deane’s Buses in the glorious new ComfortDelGro Cabcharge Pty Ltd ownership era.

Even better is the new name will be QCity Transit.

It’s not quangers anymore folks! It’s QCity!

http://www.canberratimes.com.au/act-news/bus-driver-acquitted-of-criminal-charges-over-death-of-beloved-teacher-20150908-gjhn1k.html Need i say more…and yes this driver is back behind the wheel of the same Deanes/Qcity school bus.

The extensive mass transit networks operated by ComfortDelGro in Singapore are controlled by SBS Transit Ltd so QCity Transit fits quite well I think.
When the light rail gets going in Canberra (totally integrated with ACTION) we will perhaps have Capital Metro Trams and Capital Transit Buses.

We will all be dead long time before that happens. People will still hold onto the ACTION name for dear life.

Thought The Quangers Trolley might’ve been a viable suggestion

QCity Transit – I’m having visions of a karaoke bus, with a horn that plays the Tijuana Taxi – that should really liven up the trips between QCity and CCity.

Not really the best choice of a name. About 15 years ago there was a gay newspaper in Sydney called QCapital. Anyway, what was wrong with Transborder or Deane’s Bus Lines? It seems a pointless case of rebranding dictated by marketing spivs in Sydney with ponytails.

I vote “Quangerwagon”

Clearly the wrong name, should be QTown or Quangers.

Queanbo Transfers?

Surely there needs to be a really bad song to publicise this momentous change? I vote for faux hip hop as in ‘hip hop on the QCT/ take you where you need to be’.
