Hi CM Hino,

it is not a leyland in the true sense of the word, i stand to be corrected but i think they have a cummins motor in them & are basically a midi bus, not a whole lot of them built as far as i know.

Busabout/Hawesbury Valley in sydney have 2 bodied by ABD

I know this is going back 7 years but I can not find the bus in the last photo in the fleet list - I think it is 6111AO and could be the bus shown in the fleet list http://fleetlists.busaustralia.com/indb ... ype=6111AO with Yackandandah Bus Lines, Yackandandah

Can anyone confirm this?

You're correct, Fleet Lists. It would be ex-Fallon's (Beechworth) now that it's with Yackandandah.

Thanks,

The MAN was owned by Lade and initially worked a school run from Katunga, was later transferred to Beechworth(in Beechworth Bus Lines livery)(after Lade acquired it from Jackson)and was not part of the sale to Fallons, instead passing to Yackandandah Bus Lines with a number of other Beechworth vehicles.
Note that there are 2 Lade's at Yackandandah, being different generations, one is Yackandandah Bus Lines, the other Yackandandah Coach Lines, Burrumbus can better explain the separation from Beechworth Bus Lines which is now owned by Fallons
yolo seems to be a bit of a trend!
