Re: Baker and Howell Campbelltown
Good morning Campbelltown busboy.
Campbelltown Transit Co.-a partnership of R.W.Rowe.,Jim Newport and Roger Graham took over the business of Baker and Howell on 13/5/67.
If you go to www.sydneybusroutes.com you will find Robert Henderson's magnificent website describing in detail each route in Sydney and its development.
Choose the tab private route histories ,then routes 92 and 93.
Also check out route 102 as the services were under common ownership prior to 1953 under Herbert Harrison.
Hope this helps.
