Directive from TfNSW.
Looks like they are now balancing fleet age across all regions, not just within a region.

In May 2019 ComfortDelGro acquired Blanch's Bus Company and Brunswick Valley Coaches in the Northern Rivers region. Brunswick Valley had been part of Blanch for some time prior to that.

Any idea why Warnervale now has 7334 MO. Saw it yesterday near Johnson Rd Tuggerah and thought it was bizarre for it to be a transfer from Thornton however still has the HVB decals above the windows on both sides

Which Volvo B7RLE is down at Warnervale? I’ve noticed an additional 0405 CC 510 Merc up at Thornton (maybe 7610 from Warnervale??) Is someone able to shed some light on that for me. I would’ve went for drive today to check it out but I’m Covid struck until Monday next week 😭

At least 2 Volvo B7RLE Volgren Optimus moved from HF to HN depot (M/O 6130 and 6132).
Have an image of 6132 showing Northmead Depot accreditation but I don't know how to upload it.

I have received a PM that
"I don't know if you are aware but CDCNSW and Forest Coachlines have a new depot at 21 Middleton Rd Cromer."
Google maps shows it as an Ausgrid depot.

It is definitely real and Google Streetview shows it has been active since around December of 2021. As I am not a resident of the region I can't confirm it's current status and what is stored there however in said streetview there is a lot of older High-floor buses (and some School Bus Marcopolos) parked there, I can't make out any low entry buses so perhaps this is a depot exclusively for Charters & school operations.
