Also in March 2016, in full Busways coach livery, is this AB Denning Vario bodied Optare Metrorider, 2949MO, seen in the depot of Sweeney Todd of Bangalow, who acquired it from Dunoon & Sodhi of Lismore. They bought it from KBG of Illuka but is was new as King Bros 254 (MO5121), so quite why it has Busways livery is a bit of a mystery.
