As it is specifically to do with Western Australian articles, I consider the main problem is lack of content in the articles has been the low level of adequate information to clarify the services and their history. Transregional bus services in WA are markedly under-edited, despite the information about them existing.

These articles (and possibly others) are in
Category:Noongar place names, but there is no verifiable statement in the article to support that categorization. Per
WP:CATV, "It should be clear from verifiable information in the article why it was placed in each of its categories".
That is actually sufficient because its consistent right across Noongar country(SW Australia), there is no synth when the suffix of up is used on a placename.

Could you please cite and quote the reliable source that says that all place names in SW Australia that end in "up" are Noongar. That's "all placenames", because "some Noongar names end in 'up'" does not imply that "all names that end in 'up' are Noongar".
In any case, please read
WP:SYN again: "Do not combine material from multiple sources to state or imply a conclusion not explicitly stated by any of the sources. ... If one reliable source says A [all names ending in "up" are of Noongar origin] and another reliable source says B [there exists a place called Foo-up], do not join A and B together to imply a conclusion C [the name Foo-up is of Noongar origin] not mentioned by either of the sources."

none of the three sources linked actually say that, I can see some possible bastardisations from the
Whitehurst list that might fit. Unfortunately my book of all known lists complied in the 1990 was stolen and the WA Museum doest print it any more. I'd suggest also looking at Armstrong, Bussell, and Bates for that area.
