Finally! I've been avidly looking for them for days now, so it's great to have confimation of them. What route was 20 doing?

It would be nice to see some more artics for LCBS in the near future.

[08 XDi]

LCBS would be very happy with more artics - a recent article in ABC indicated they would be looking for something in the order of another 10 so they could service the 555 exclusively with them. As to if/when they will show up - all depends.

[bus reviewer]

Thanks for the info, number 20 was on the 560 route, seeing is that logan city bus service just got 4 more Volvo B12BLE shows that LCBS are updating their fleet and hopfully they are in the process of getting more artics built, we may see some more artics show up in the later months such as september.

Ooh can't wait! Do you know when/if they're going to be getting rid of any more of their high floor buses. 19, 20, 21 and 28 all used to be high floor before being replaced, presumably they'll do the same with others some time?

[BBL 10]

Hinos, unit 30 is due anytime to be pulled off the road around September and the three cubs 38,39,40 to be replaced by four new Volvos which have been delivered.

[BestFriendHasLeprosy]

Any more new ones to be delivered this year after the already in service 19, 20, 21, 28, 38 and 39?

[BestFriendHasLeprosy]

Just to update -

55, 66 and 86 are all now in TransLink livery.

[BestFriendHasLeprosy]

113 is now in TransLink livery alongside 55, 66 and 86.

[BestFriendHasLeprosy]

85 is now in TransLink livery.

[BestFriendHasLeprosy]

23 is now gone; has been sold to Koala Koaches. Koala now have ex LCBS 22, 23, 25 and 31.

[superbossgc]

yeah, I saw it was last week it repainting in white.

[08 XDi]

It hasn't been mentioned yet, but for those who may not know - there are at least 2 B7RLEs in build at Bustech which should be making an appearance soon.

[superbossgc]

Yeah, I know about it, both new buses in translink livery.

[racingnathan]

Do you know if they have ZF or Voith boxes?

[08 XDi]

Do you know if they have ZF or Voith boxes?

Uncertain.

I would hope ZF with all the highway running required.

[superbossgc]

confirmed 1 goes, 1 at bustech tho.

[superbossgc]

2nd one is goes, now both in service I think, check it out please.

[BestFriendHasLeprosy]

Will update here as soon as I see them. I'll be on the look out next week.

Any idea of regos/fleet numbers? Classic VST or new one?

[racingnathan]

Classic VST, easiest way to spot the difference is the A/C unit as its different to the others.

[superbossgc]

A/C is thermo king.
