Would these include the buses hired out to Hornibrook Buslines for Sandgate / Bracken Ridge operations??

https://www.brisbanetimes.com.au/national/queensland/brisbane-s-most-and-least-popular-bus-routes-20180618-p4zm61.htmlThere are 1223 council buses servicing Brisbane.
In 2018-19 the council would retire 59 of those buses but would also deliver 45 new buses, with 16 of which to be larger articulated buses.
Cr Schrinner said those bus sizes delivered the equivalent of 60 new buses.
More than 33 million was allocated for the 2018-19 financial year to deliver the new buses.
I assume that the 29 new "regular" buses and 16 new articulated buses for next will be Volvo V8BLE and V8BLEA vehicles - can anyone confirm?
I also note that the news story detailed there were 1223 buses currently in service. From the BT Buses site, there are 1234 listed (although 2330 is listed twice).
There is a difference of ten buses which tends to suggest there have been some recent withdrawals - can anyone confirm?[/quote]
