Numbering Oddballs

 

During the delivery of the Neoplans though 1982-1988.  Each order of bus started from transit style buses then Suburban style buses will finished off the order of buses for that year.  However, in 1989 the Order of Neoplans went from the transit style version (3372-3449), to Suburban (3450-3479), then back to transit style for the remainder 12 Neoplans (3280-3491).
