406 arrived late last week, 407 arrived today and a Scania Evo II CNG bus which was sighted at Kingsgrove depot this morning is now at Tuggeranong depot. This bus is all white and has a little bit of green and orange on the front, more details can be found here.

988 was involved in a rather nasty accident last week and will be off the road for a while

It has been reported that Bus 464 will be heading back to Custom Coaches (Sydney) due to issues with the steering wheel.

I would of thought issues like that would of been picked up when Custom Coaches delivered the bus a few days ago.
