Saw m/o 9906 on 612X, that currently says based at Dural. Would this now be at Foundry?

Please Correct me if wrong :)

UPDATE - 818 IS NOW AT NORTHMEAD!

6633 MO now in what I could best call TfNSW TrainLink livery? Seen at Foundry, but still with Deanes registration, so I'm assuming it will return down south. Unfortunately I could not get away from the reflection on a rainy day.

In the TBX fleet now is a Volvo B7 in a autobus coach body it used to be in the all red Hunter Valley Buses livery and rego of TV 2095. I was told and it was refurbished inside and transferred to queanbeyan and it was resprayed into the new TBX livery and reregistered as 6845 MO and looks brilliant in the livery. Great to have a autobus bodied coach back in the TBX fleet.

m/o 6152 has always been at Seven Hills (Foundry Rd). Foundry & Hartley Rd Depots are both under the "Seven Hills" accreditation. One would think CDC would have separate names but....

Ah, I see... I thought Seven Hills and Foundry had different accreditations from one another-that explains the 14.5 I saw with Seven Hills on it a while ago. Thanks for the clarification and correction :)

Hillsbus 6386 seems to be missing from the fleetlist
I would believe it to be a volgren "optimus" in line with the way the fleet is being numbered.

Thanks Geoff. 7483 MO is a 5/14 model and was taken over from GJ & RD Crossingham t/a Queanbeyan Minibus Hire, Wamboin 1/5/17 with Line of Route N0957 Sutton - Ginninderra Rd. This was sold from Deanes to Crossingham in 1/99 as it was considered outside the scope of the business at the time (minibus contract).

I've updated full details on 5118 MO & 7483 MO on the list.
