AFAIK they have B63 and B72 (which is currently under restoration).
S313 is the other GM cab they have (and it's in running condition in
V/Line colours).

Ouch, my notes are wrong then; I don't know how I wrote 75 for 82.  I
was interested to see B80 there as I have the number plate for A80:
according to "reclamation" whence I bought the plate, B80 was next on
the list to be converted to an "A" class when the conversion process
was scrapped and "N"s ordered instead.
