This bus, along with many other lowfloors at Nuline, has not been cleaned for over a year, potentially longer, hence the entire back half of it being covered with graffiti.
Despite the appalling condition of its interior, this bus does have some pretty nice hubs, and has a very beautiful downshift from 3rd to 2nd gear (see 5:40).
Thanks to the very respectful driver.
ex Phillips Bus Service as #36 (3209AO), then Cranbourne Transit (same number and rego)
