Also spotted 2 M-Benz demo units with BM Transit - at Valley Heights is all white Volgren Optimus M-Benz rego CH55NL, seen in the depot and on route service. Spotted today at Katoomba depot is a M-Benz Sprinter all white and low entry door, blank desto. Also on private plates but haven't downloaded image yet for details.

Re: Blue mountains bus co fleet changes
Spotted at Katoomba depot today in the workshop just jutting out, the rear end of a Poncho demonstrator. The M-Benz Sprinter demonstrator bus hasn't been sighted for over a week so I suspect has moved on.

Re: Blue mountains bus co fleet changes
Good luck to them filling it. From the loadings I've seen now and then the old Sprinter would have been sufficient. But, might have something up their sleeve.Geoff wrote:For the Jenolan Caves Day Tour.

Re: Blue mountains bus co fleet changes
I've heard one of the former Trolleys may now be a staff shed at Seven Hills depot, haven't been that way for a while so can't confirm.
