Bus 231 was a Bedford SB3

==Notes==
* Bus 231 was a stock unit purchased from Sydney dealer Suttons Motors Pty Ltd at time of 1974 vehicle shortage.
* It was first registered on 29 July 1974.
* After being withdrawn from service, Bus 231 was hired to ACT Police.
* In October 1976, 231 was transferred to the Special Duty Fleet, re-registered as ZID-612 and hired to the ACT Health Service in a new blue and white livery.
* It was later sighted in Jindabyne as MO5310 owned by Innes Williams, operating a Ingebyra to Jindabyne school run.
* In 1990, it was purchased by YMCA Canberra and repurposed as a "Night Bus".<ref>[https://trove.nla.gov.au/newspaper/article/120892838 Night bus to cruise Canberra's 'street kid' venues – ''Canberra Times'' via Trove (17 Jun 1990)]</ref>
