All B10BLEs split between HS and HN, all B7s split between HN and HF and HD filled with K94s and K230s (save for 10 K94s at HF), all L94s moved to HF and most O405/O405NHs to HN (remainder at HD).

7244, one of the 'Ansetts', remains in fleetlists as the sole NH at Dural. I take it this will (or has) been moved to Northmead?

In the fleet lists it lists m/o 1052 as 7591 MO, it is incorrect, i think that it never had it's rego changed as it's still got m/o 1052 on it

7591MO is in fact ex m/o 775, which has incorrectly been placed in the disposal list

Westrans recently withdrawn 4 Volvo B10M MkIV's in the last couple of weeks, Fleet Numbers 43-46, I hope they the one's you were talking about.

That would be the Volvo B9TL 3 axle double deck bus that Hong Kong companies like Kowloon Motor Group, and City Group are using.

I will be hoping the B9TL is brand new instead of a second hand bus from KMB?

Moreover, may I ask is it only 1 bus ordered? And is it 12m or 12.8m?

I hope after this other other companies will consider ordering this model, especially for STA on their L90.

Still have to figure out the length, it has 7 windows, but the chassis have 8 bays, I wonder is it a 11.3m bus

If it is a 11.3m bus, is there any chance the bus could be 2 axis?

I don't think we can come to conclusion at this stage with regards to number of windows. ATENU got 7 big windows and it is 12m, but AMN got 7.5 windows and it is also 12m. So we have to check with the size of windows as well.

And any chance the B9TL is Euro V or VI?

It is a 3axle chassis like Hong Kong, currently Hong Kong got some 11.3m 3 axle B9TL getting bodied in Malaysia with kits from Wright.

The B9TL is going to be Euro V, there are no news about Euro6 version for the tri axle giant yet.


ATENU have 8 big windows.

I was told that m/o 7361 is now at Northmead to be with m/o 407, saw 7361 out on 2696 (School Run) and only Northmead buses do the run, so a possible transfer?
