 Seen at the Casino Bus Service depot in August 2009 is 11 (5777MO) previously MO2644 a former Sydney Mercedes O305. However the bus requires a closer look as it was extended to 40 feet in length, using sections from two former STA Mercs. Using the front end of the PMC body of ex STA 1801 and the read end of 1827 this 53 seat school bus was produced. The bus was deregistered in June 2011 and placed in storage. |
 Already withdrawn in 2009 is an unidentified sister vehicle, which was unstretched. |
 More modern equipment in 2009 came in the shape of a pair of Mercedes O405NH Bustech combinations dating from 2000 and acquired from King Brothers when only three years old. This is 27 (MO5772), previously MO5204, its sister is numbered sequentially. Though seen here on a school run, Casino does provide local bus services in the township of Casino. Both O405NH buses were sold to Dion's for their Uni shuttle, this one becoming TV8339, the other TV8340. it was withdrawn when the Uni service was cut back during COVID and sold to Moore's Tours of Carss Park gaining new rego TV698A. |
