 Returning to the depot is sister vehicle 1360 (TP1360). Unlike 1359 it was not returned to service when it went back to Perth after withdrawal at the end of 2020. It is seen outside the imposing Exchange Hotel, one of several grand pubs in the town.

 Dating from 2001, Mercedes O405NH 1203 (TP1203) was transferred to the Goldfields ten years later. It appears to have returned to Perth with 1359 and 1360 but despite being older it went into service, then transferred to TransCollie for around six months, but back in service in Perth by March 2023. The bus is seen outside the depot, still labelled "Eastern Goldfields Transport Board".

 Resting up in the depot yard after their school runs were Mercedes 1204, 1231, 1359, 1360 and 1361. Sister to 1203, 1204 (TP1204) went to TransBridgetown at the beginning of 2021. It was joined in Bridgetown by 1231 (TP1231) of 2002 which had arrived in Kalgoorlie in 2005 working for the Eastern Goldfields Transport Board and wearing their dark red livery. Joining 1359 and 1360, 1361 (TP1361) re-enetered service in Perth.

 Seen in Kalgoorlie on town service 861 is 1161 (TP1161). The 2000 vintage O405NH was another back in service in Perth in 2023 after a period in storage. Doubtless the storage of all the O405NH buses was partly COVID related.
