I have a question. When the MABC systems comes to NSW and QLD, will the metropolitan routes remain, like in Melbourne? I'm guessing they will. If they don't...
In NSW, sydney is being renumbered first, so the metroploitan routes will not stay. Victoria chose to renumber the rural system first, that is why the metro...

Fair enough, but this is the ONLY interstate route between capitals that is in any doubt. And the decision is already made - New England is the national...
