And that comes on top of the 3-4 year delay to get them in service.
I couldn’t believe that the unions were seemingly not consulted in the design and as a result, unhappy with them and thus refused to put them into service until modifications were made. It’s one of the biggest balls up I’ve ever seen, and that’s saying something.
It seems to vary depending on routes and modes of transport, at least in Adelaide.
For trains in Adelaide, it will only appear once the train has left the city, and after it does the return trip to the city, it resets.
However, for trams and buses, you can see what routes a vehicle will be travelling on for the day - however, you can only find out what vehicle it is after the bus/tram starts it’s journey.
Not sure if it’s similar or different for Sydney, but hope that helps.

This morning the Victorian Government put up a press release on public transport services for the upcoming Australian Open tennis. Notably, for the first time, special late night buses will depart from Federation Square from Sunday to Thursday on both weeks of the tournament (including the men’s singles final on January 26), to cater for late finishing matches. However, the buses only operate until 2am, so for those rare games that go beyond 2am, fans will still have to make their own arrangements to go home.
I might be able to walk to Melbourne Park(RLA) on the day I attend the AO on the 22nd. I’m staying close to Flinders Street Station .(Rendezvous Hotel)I arrive on the 21st and return to Brisbane 24th.
I’ll still buy a MYKI card if I want to explore further.
The Rail, Tram and Bus Union has raised concerns some of the carriages, which are yet to transport a single passenger, could be developing rust and mechanical issues due to lack of use.
This is the grown-up equivalent of shouting “stop hitting yourself” while your older brother holds your hand and pummels you.
(The Australian Association of National Advertisers CEO Josh Faulks) said the ban will lead to a reduction in the investment in the operation and maintenance of South Australia’s public transport network, leaving government and commuters to wear the burden of the cost for these services.
It would also also make it difficult for some providers to advertise at some of South Australia’s iconic events like Tasting Australia.
The industry bodies have called on the South Australian government to reconsider the decision and to look at more effective ways to collaborate with the marketing industry to improve the health of South Australians.
