Accompanying the various buses on the school charter in 2012 was 45 (XMA482), a now retired imposing Austral Tourmaster bodied Scania K112TR.

The fleet contained some more modern coaches like this Coach Design bodied MAN 24.420, 80 (SB47FU). The coach was new to Pinnacle Tours in WA but acquired from Busko Tours in Kingsgrove, NSW. |

Murton's City Bus in Broken Hill and BUSES-R-US were in common ownership. Perhaps it is no coincidence that when Murton's obtained its BCI buses for Broken Hill town services in 2009, this BCI coach joined the Adelaide fleet. The two fleets often exchanged buses and the livery of many was common. BUSES-R-US also operated a bus service between Adelaide and Broken Hill. The Broken Hill operations were sold to Buslink and on to CDC Delgro. The other associated company is the Port Augusta Bus Service. |
