 These photos were mostly taken during or just before the annual renown Tamworth Country Music Festival. The rather sparse normal town services were augmented in frequency and extra routes were laid on to link music venues around the town. It was school holidays so spare vehicles were available but a Berrima Buslines B8RLE was borrowed for the week which spent all its time sat in Brisbane Street. One of the older buses, Bustech VST bodied Mercedes O500LE 10 (4820MO), was new to Berrima in 2015 as 20 (MO6871).

 Across the Buslines group Mercedes held sway, but Volvos have subsequently found favour. Just three Mercedes, all O500LE/VST models, were with Tamworth in January 2024, numbered 10 to 12. This is 12 (6602MO) new in 2015 seen returning to the depot after a day's service.

 Here 12 is seen again passing Pick of the Crop's Autobus bodied Scania K113TRB TV908A outside a motel, doubtless full of Country Music fans.
