You mean Kinetic

It will most likely be absorbed into Sunbus Townsville

Looks like Campbells have closed their Bohle depot. All their coaches and trailers are now parked in the empty lot at the front of the Sunbus depot. There's also a red Telfords coach that has been getting around Townsville that is parking in there with them. I haven't seen the double decker Denning, so not sure if that's been withdrawn?

Since Kinetic also own Sunbus perhaps the Campbells vehicles have just been relocated to that depot??

Yeah they are all still in Campbells livery, I would say just housed beside Sunbus. There is clearly not enough space in the Sunbus depot as they are sitting in a vacant lot - there's a bit of a mix of vehicles in the lot, including some of the Sunbus liveried coaches as well as Campbells, the Telfords coach and one in livery for Ignatius Park College.

Looks like they have started removing the Campbell’s livery from some of these vehicles.

I’ve seen an all white Denning this week, and the Artic is now all white as well.

Interesting that they don’t seem to be extensively rolling out the Kinetic livery, they have only a handful in that so far.
