caption_attribution_description: English: ACTION (BUS 511) - Custom Coaches 'CB80' bodied Scania K360UA 6x2/2 on Edward Street in Wagga Wagga, on route to Canberra to be delivered to ACTION.
context_page_description: ACTION is a bus operator in Canberra, Australia owned by the ACT Government.
context_section_description: On 19 July 1926, the Federal Capital Commission commenced operating public bus services between Eastlake (now Kingston) in the south and Ainslie in the north.
  The service was first known as Canberra City Omnibus Service, but it has had a number of names over the years, including Canberra City Bus Service, Canberra Omnibus Service and Canberra Bus Service. On 14 February 1977, it was renamed as the Australian Capital Territory Internal Omnibus Network, or ACTION for short.
  In 1976, Canberra became the first city in Australia to operate articulated buses after the purchase of 25 MAN SG192s.
  As part of the move to ACT self-government, responsibility for ACTION passed from the Federal Government to the ACT Government in 1989.
