Wrong body numbers. They are the ones for 263 & 264. Fleetlists has the correct details.

Perhaps this post should be changed to Kinetic Group Queensland and another one created for the rest of their operations. ??

My point being that while this is called Kinetic Group fleet changes, the Queensland moves dominate here by far - obviously a more enthusiastic bunch of spotters. Any change to the other operations (eg Telfords) could be easily missed by the sheer volume of Queensland updates. Just a thought !

Would like to note, to whom it may concern, that 5533 is a Custom Coaches CB20, was edited and changed to "Custom Coaches" on fleetlists.
