Scania K113TR 51 (0981AO) is one of only a handful of coaches in the fleet. It is seen in late 2011 at Melbourne Aquarium (with B10M 21) on a school trip. As can be seen it sees frequent use on ski runs to Mount Buller. Cranborne owners, the Pulitano Group, also own Mansfield Mt Buller Bus Lines, so there are garage facilities available to the ski express coaches on arrival at the mountain resort. This Austral Denning "Majestic" bodied coach was new to Greyhound Pioneer in 1996 but was acquired by Cranbourne from Northern Bus Lines of Glenroy in Victoria where it had been registered 1221AC. Before that it had served another Victorian operator, Australian Coach Travel of Highett. |

Sister Scania 52 (0982AO), with a similar history, is seen heading south on La Trobe Street in January 2014.
