More Man 19.330 GBVs are slowly being put into service. Units 1003 and 1007 recently started service last week. Both assigned to Coomera Depot. The Bustech B12BLEs aren’t long for service on the GC.

Does anyone know where 5628, 5630, 5635, 5641 and 5761 are? They all have not been in service since last year (or is it just Kinetics OBC's playing up again)

They are still in service. They just have no tracking. I saw 5628 and 5761 in service today as well as 952 and 953 which are also not tracking.
