Surfside 326 seen in the last minutes of sunlight in Tumbulgum with the thrice-daily weekday return route 609 from Kingscliff TAFE to Murwillumbah introduced on the 16th of December 2019 when major changes to Tweed bus services were made. 326 is an interesting unit, one of the first XDis fitted with a Cummins engine after CAT stopped production of the C7 model, as well as doors which open outwards like on some CDC CDis, and it was the first NSW revenue bus to be painted into the revised green scheme.

One of three new Volgren Optimus buses part of a larger order of 15 new low-entry MAN vehicles by Surfside Buslines, bus 900 (9321 MO) is seen on Terranora Road, Bungalora, operating an inbound 605 to Tweed City from Murwillumbah with a rather friendly driver at the wheel. 900 will be replacing O400UP Orana 621, and what is interesting is they appear to finally be implementing adequate protection for drivers from any kind of violence from passengers with the MAN order, and also that the Volgrens specifically are equipped with both coach-style seating and seat belts.

Permanently exiled to NSW school duties, 893 returns to Tweed depot, seen on Ducat Street, West Tweed, having just completed the 1203 school service which it has been assigned to along with its driver for the last 9 or 10 months following the previous bus allocated to this service, 604, dying one afternoon at Terranora Public School. Note the actual State Transit seating fabric, not the LA lookalike fabric that is installed on 893, which none of the other 550s left with Surfside seem to have.
