As far as I know, the original plan was Willoughby to get a fair share of those B12BLEA, since they already had 20 B12BLEs. But, after having them testing over at Willoughby, it shows that the depot space would not allow them to turn inside the depot at the end of the washing, therefore no B12BLEAs to Willoughby, but in return, they got all the Ryde long Scanias, and offloaded 10 short buses to other depots to cater for them.
3411 and 3412 are two long Scanias that actually have good aircons!

Usually 288, but nowadays you can also see 14.5m on 290, 292 during the day on some of the runs.
The late night buses that you mentioned are usually 14.5m, if not it will be a Volvo/Scania low floor for sure. I've done a 288 last bus from QVB before, but since I don't have HR license, I have to take a Volvo out instead of a 14.5m
272, 205 are also quite common to see 14.5m during peak hours these days.
