For anyone interested, here is the closing music that WIN News used in Victoria and Queensland in the 1990’s https://youtu.be/O42O-4N-NI0

While on the subject of WIN’s closers, has anyone ever found out/know of the previous theme they used Late 90’s/early 00’s in the clip below?

Mackay and Mildura were scrapped in 2015. Mt Gambier/Riverland in 2013 and the Regional WA one in 2012. Griffith had a stand-alone bulletin until 2006 then it got incorporated into the now axed Riverina bulletin.

I think the SA one also used to be two separate bulletins, one for Riverland (Renmark) and one for the South East (Mount Gambier). Not sure exactly when they were merged, 2005 or thereabouts?

I can’t find any footage of the SA bulletin from 2012-2013. I want to see the opening card

Nah. That’s 2011
That was the standard program watermark of the time. I do recall the 8 watermark in the bulletin before they finally changed it to WIN in the early 2000s so unsure if this was just an SA thing or more widespread.

Do you know when the merged bulletin was axed?

It was axed in February 2013.

The only statewide bulletin is in Tasmania. Other bulletins are market specific. All markets (excluding NNSW which only joined WIN a few years ago) have at one point or another had a WIN News bulletin.
The days of WIN creating new bulletins are over due to decreasing profit as a result of ongoing high affiliation costs.

Date suggests for Movember.

I think a statewide bulletin for Regional NSW could work - rather than axing 3 bulletins.
