An early recipient of the full PTV was Volgren CR222L bodied Scania L94UB 358 (0358AO) of 1999 seen at Southland Westfield in January 2014. Note the Transdev fleetname is reduced to an insignia above the rear wheel arch, smaller than temporary vinyl stickers used on inherited liveried buses. Picture Ref A1579 |
Worth a second look. Whilst the Melbourne Bus Link - with the exception of two Mercedes Sprinters and a Toyota Coaster - was entirely made up of Scania-Volgren products, the National Bus fleet had a few only delivered before the takeover. They had arrived in the new post-Grenda acquisition livery adopted by Ventura with a white base and blue and yellow markings. It was thus relatively easy to peel off the coloured vinyls and slap on some orange ones. Scania K280UB 998 (9104AO) is seen arriving in the city centre on Christmas Eve in 2013. Picture Ref A1501 |
