Chassis / Body: Mercedes Benz O305/PMC Mark 4
Fleet Numbers: 2717, 2728-3070, 3072-3082
Total Built: 355
Entered Service: 1983-1987
Withdrawn from Service:2010-2012
Notes: In June 1983 a tender to supply 200 buses was let, then in November 1984 another 50 were added via Federal government Bicentennial road funding grant. In March 1985 more funding was made available via Federal Bicentennial Road Development program to purchase a further 150 buses, this would have seen the last Mark IV being 3127 and be complete by 1988, in late 1986 a further 17 buses were added as well as an extra one to replace a written off bus. In the end the original 200 bus order grew to 419 buses!
However reality would be that Mercedes Benz would aim to discontinue the O305 chassis in 1987 – they imported a German built right hand drive demonstrator in early 1986, which toured Australia. Then a prototype O405, 3071 being built during 1987, by October 1987 it was clear that the final 62 buses of this order would instead be of the new Mercedes Benz chassis and a new body style – Pressed Metal Corporation Mark V. There would be a private version of this known as the Metro 90 – just as there was a private version of the Mark IV.


The VoV influence of the Mark II and III Mercedes Benz O305s was replaced by the "Stadt 80" design on the Mark IV variant - the windscreens on these curved around the sides of the front, eliminating the A pillar that was present in the earlier Mercedes Benz O305s which created a blind spot. There was also a larger destination aperture and the look was much squarer than previous models. While most of the fleet were delivered with the traditional roller blind destination equipment, 20 vehicles, the odd numbered vehicles between 2761 and 2799, were delivered with STC Canon destination equipment (these had no supplementary destination under the windscreen) front side and rear. The seating on these buses was a blue 'frontrunner' fabric material rather than the vinyl 'tartan' found on other buses, after some time they reverted to the vinyl tartan as seats were replaced. The electronic displays proved troublesome and the buses limited to the new 400 cross regional route which commenced in 1989 (they were signwritten as such as well) - they were soon replaced with Mercedes Benz O405s and to allow for use on other routes, roller blinds were installed.
They were delivered new to each depot, the largest group ended up being in Newcastle, a portion of the fleet ended up being refurbished in the early 2000's.
Like the Mark IIIs before them, a large amount were scrapped after STA service given there was only a niche market available.

However, 2717 (the prototype) and odd numbered vehicles between 2761-2799 were delivered
with STC-Canon dot matrix destination systems on the front, side and rear these were eventually retrofitted with roller blonds
Some units received electric motorised roller systems later in life

The final four in service of this class (3009, 3059, 3065 and 3073) were withdrawn from Ryde depot after returning from their afternoon school runs on Thursday 18th October 2012 with 3073 being last back into the depot. Ending an era spanning 35 years and 1317 buses, the largest fleet of Mercedes Benz O305's in the world.
