IMU vehicles 105,106 & 107 have been fully commissioned and should
currently be in traffic. 108 should be in traffic very soon, 109 is
making the journey down from Maryborough at the end of this week and 110
is still undergoing commissioning in Maryborough. By the way, IMU 101 -
104 have all been retrofitted with new PA/VAS systems and door monitors.

Don't know why they used the Cleveland line, normally we like to use the
Helensvale line for any IMU test runs. Maybe they just took whichever
line was convenient for that time of day.
