Adelaide, one of the worlds few locations for a guided busway - the O-Bahn. Trip on the O-Bahn January 2016. ImageImage
The buses have small lateral guide wheels which engage with the guide rails. Image
If in Adelaide well worth a ride.

Traveston railway station is on the Sunshine Coast line, between Cooran and Gympie North. It is the least used station on the Citytrain network. Total passengers was 131 for FY 18/19. In 2011 it was in danger of closing as it had significant termite damage. Image
On the 25 March 2010 Queensland Rail warned Gympie Regional Council it wouldn't upgrade Traveston train station and was to close it down. A campaign was started to keep Traveston. With local support we were successful in keeping Traveston station in service. Image
On Tuesday 22nd November 2011 a group of us travelled to Traveston to celebrate the saving of the station. We also did some media there as well.
This is a pictorial history of the day.
We begin at Roma St. ICE 151 for Gympie North (despite the Nambour desto). Image
