 We have already seen the front end, but MCA 55 has a sting in the tail with the devil on board.

 Visiting the Busy Blue Bus depot at Esperance in November 2018 few buses were painted blue and none boasted the unusual fleetname! Ironically this MCA, CVL1801, had been painted all over blue when with Adams in Perth. It was new in 1995 to Redline who sold it on to Adams. The coach was bought by Redlion of Esperance and, like many of that fleet ended up with Busy Blue Bus when they purchased the Redlion company. Busy Blue has the franchise for the local bus service, TransEsperance so that is a fleet of silver and green, then they also operate a large number of school contracts in the state's orange, green and white colours, so the blue and white is in the minority.

 Enjoying a day at the seaside in October 2017 is Glenorie Coaches TV6079. It is on Campbell Parade by Bondi Beach. The 62 seater was taken off the road in 2018 for conversion to an 85 seater! The 14.5m long MCA was new in 1995 to Redline Coaches as 65 with a series of regos: DJ8893, ER7932 and finally A77BE.
