Notes
- Bus 963 was delivered in a painted special livery for ACTION. A common misconception is that the bus (along with sister units 967 and 971) advertises the National Dinosaur Museum, however the dinosaur skeletons that make up the livery actually encourage people to "Take ACTION (to) conserve our fossil fuels"
- In July 2016, its Alcatel/STC Cannon flip-dot destination signs were replaced with Hanover LED equipment.
- The last service operated by Bus 963 was Route 32 (City to Belconnen via Cook & Jamison), departing City Interchange at 16:20 on 26 July 2024. This was the final service operated by a Renault PR100.2 based at Belconnen Depot.
