Apart from a handful of one off artics (3000-3002), 3003 was the first of a new generation of low floor Volgren bodied Volvo B12BLEA machine in August 2011. The bus was floowed by thirty similar machines in the first half of 2012 like 3021 (TP3021) seen here in Swan Transit's Midvale depot in November 2018. Alongside 3021 is Volgren Optimus bodied Volvo B8RLEA 3085 (TP3085), one of over sixty such buses delivered since 2014 which have displaced all of the ageing Mercedes, MANs and Renaults.
