Volvo 1588 is from the batch delivered to Newcastle in 2005. Unlike the earlier 2003 delivery the buses are in same shade of blue as used in Sydney. Like Sydney the red band has been dropped too. The bus, 1588 (MO1588), is seen in August 2009 heading for the city.

Volvo 1590 (MO1590) is seen in the Bus Station with 1406 (MO1406) so the livery contrast should be apparent. Sandwiched in between is Mercedes O405 3125 (MO3125).

The rear views of 1428 (MO1428) and 3167 (MO3167) shows the Mercedes recently repainted in the then new STA fleet livery with a right angle rear division between the light blue and white. The Volvo has the odd ball livery applied to the first batch of B12BLEs.
