The most important change with this series was the re-orientation of the face 180° such that the direction of insertion into the barriers now became
the left hand edge rather than the right hand edge. As well, whilst the style of the typeface applied to the ticket at the time of issue
remained the same, the amount of information printed was simplified to only included the basic fare information.

The colours used in conjunction with these changes closely reflect the new corporate colours being applied to the Sydney Ferry fleet at that time.
It is not clear why the final design omits the yellow band.

The ticket illustrated suggests it may have been used for printing layout alteration purposes, as it is marked "wrong". The 13 digits comprise
the machine number (104), the date of issue (141091) and time of issue (0934) and these details in this 13 digit format was the standard
style applied to Travelpass tickets only. The "wrong"apparently refers to the word "expires" being after the date - it was subsequently
moved to before the date, and the Travelpass colour was printed in larger typeface below the newly moved word "expires".
The blank back used on this and subsequent tickets is also shown.

This ticket illustrates the final appearance with a 7 digit number comprising the issuimg machine number and time.

The next ticket in known date issue order shows a thinner "Sydney Ferries" title and logo.

The next ticket in known date issue order has the yellow band omitted. The magnetic strip on the rear is not quite the full width.
The owner of the "CST" printers mark is not currently known.

The final ticket shown has been issued on the same day as the earliest known "FerryTravel+" design as
descibed in the next section.
