No, it's ex Blue Ribbon / CDC Mercedes O405, formally 3589 MO.
There isn't any photos of 3589 I'm aware of but there is an older photo from 2007 that shows it's sister bus in it's blue ribbon livery (Link Fixed, NOT MY PHOTO)

Unfortunately you are using a dynamic URL which gives variable results - hence it showed a Scania for me.

The information for each photo is there, all you need to do is hover your pointer over the image and the info shows up but then again some people are to lazy to do that.

Re: Back streets of Banksmeadow. 18/7/20
It's not hard to just put a quick one liner about what the bus is, where it is, and where it's been. But then again some people are too lazy to do that

Clicking "place inline" when you upload a photo will make it show the descriptions you write for them, even for mobile users.

THat's what Facebook is for - sharing photos. As long as the photos are appropriate for the page, what is your problem? Not everybody is a member of every FB bus group.
I certainly enjoy The Inspector's photos, even if they turn up in more than one place.
You should be grateful that someone is actively taking photos and sharing them with everybody.

You took the words right out of my mouth regards what's the problem?
Bus enthusiasts are a funny lot and I don't mean in the humorous sense!

Re: Back streets of Banksmeadow. 18/7/20
Boronia has a point, not to stray off topic than what's needed but on here the forum don't get a lot of submissions posted here much anymore and off the top of my head I can only username pick a couple of active members that post photos here, it's all been moved to the big social media giants mainly Facebook and a majority of them now locked behind private groups which I despise but that is for another topic itself. Having something posted here even if it has been posted elsewhere already at least generates some form of activity and new content here. Moving everything to Facebook will in itself make this site sadly redundant and I don't believe any of us want it to come to that stage. Also as Boronia pointed out not everyone is a member of the groups or likes Facebook. The only reason I have an account is for my own public Page (Not group) and that's it.
