I think that was Brighton's colour scheme.

Can't remember now, I only drove for them for 2 days

I do know they ran at least one CVI/Smithfield example in the existing ACTION scheme. Same with a MAN SL200 later on to the eastern side of Rockdale Station into the 1990s.
This Freighter one I saw was not in the former ACTION scheme. It was mostly white with some orange striping from memory. It was abit like Revesby Bus and Coach.
I also remember it had one of those beaded seat covers that were the staple of bus and taxi drivers everywhere. :lol:

Toronto Bus Service had a sole Coachmaster bodied example. Probably got a good deal on the chassis.
NSW, the state that embraces mediocrity.
