In 2018 New South Wales' State Transit celebrated 85 years of serving the public. To mark the occasion twelve members of the fleet were selected to be painted in past liveries. Cleverly the graphics also helped to modify the window layout on some of the buses involved to make the buses look more like those around at the time the livery was in use.

We start with the newest livery which appeared towards the end of the last century to promote Sydney's bid to host the 2000 Olympics. The bus chosen was Bustech VST bodied Scania K280UB 2651 (2651ST) and it is seen in Chatswood in May 2018.
