[VIC] Snapshot of Mcharry's [Part 1]

Post by venturatiger »

Hi there , McHarry's is the largest operator in Geelong & the Bellarine Pennisula with nearly 150 buses. They share Geeelong town srevices with Benders & also run services on the Bellarine Pennisula as well having extensive school runs. A hard fleet to catch every bus as some lay over at schools during the day
Hope you enjoy
Regards Venturatiger

Nice Pics. Not a rosa in sight :P :D :mrgreen: :P
One clarification for those who dont know. All Mcharrys town buses are in GTS livery. Benders are in regular Kefford Group livery.

Does that mean that there are no more GTS liveried vehicles in the Benders fleet anymore?

There would not be too many left. Probably a few but none of them would do the town runs. Just local school buses.
