Hey superbossgc a update for you


All the Gobal NZ MAN Buses 5771 to 5776 are all for the Gold Coast as these buses wouldn't have been able to fit under the Nambour bridge, so Sunshine Coast has now acquired buses 949 to 954 MAN, s and all base at Marcoola depot. Another note for you Buses 5703 to 5706 transferred to Coomera.

946 is missing on the fleet list.

XB07GU - WMARC2ZZ8NF017387 - MAN 19.330

Seems that all of the new units from 945 onwards have been delivered to Molendinar/Ernest.
