Ten went to auction in May 2017 but were all passed in so I assume that a couple have been sold since.
Does anyone know what is happening with G641?PRT 065 wrote:None of these Scania's sold at todays auction, All passed in.
$2500 + Fees (15%) if you want one.
It went to auction in May, is still on the Manheim site for auction today but I saw it in service during the past week.

Bus Sales Online (Stan Biega) started advertising these units for sale this week, converted to diesel, at $99,000. A few images included in their ad. Check out their website.
Think for yourself, while it's still legal !

Re: BT Scanias
696 and 710 are parked in back lanes at Eagle Farm so look to have been withdrawn.
787 was parked at the back of one of the front lanes at Eagle Farm with other unknown Scanias parked in front of it.
Can anyone provide a list of Scanias that are currently being stored at Eagle Farm?

642 643 644 679 are withdrawn from G, 681 should be going in the near future as well.
834-838 have been transferred to Garden City to cover the withdrawn buses.

Guess it must be a really good bus to miss the axe...
