A number of new Volvo B12BLEs with Custom CB60 Evo II bodywork were put into Metrobus red. Various internal arrangements were experimented with in line with the use of artics with dual and triple doors and the long Volgren Scania. Volvo 4994 (MO4994) is seen in George Street opposite Central Station and heading for the Town Hall in summer 2008/9.
Volvo 4994 again with its blind mid change between "pre-Pay only" and "10 Leichardt".
A rear view of 4994 in the city showing how little the rear end design of the Custom body has changed since the Mercedes O405NH models.
Evo II 1958 (1958ST) from later deliveries seen on new Metrobus route 20 by the Town Hall on New Year's Day 2010. Its Christmas Bus decorations are beginning to look a bit sad.
This view of 1954 (1954ST) on route 20 shows the new decals below the windows promoting the Metrobus network. The 20 links Gore hill and Mascot. To follow in 2010 were routes 30 (Mosman - Enmore), 40 (Chatswood - Bondi Junction) and 50 (Drummoyne - Randwick). With 150 Volvo B12BLEA artics ordered with Volgren bodies, these were mostly for the new routes.
