Forest Coach Lines have had a large expansion of the brand under numerous ownerships. Here's a few shots of the Sydney based fleet.

The sixth pic has an early 70s look to it apart from the vehicles.
Much difference with the Busways 19.320s? I'm guessing they have a ZF inside.
NSW, the state that embraces mediocrity.
