Would anyone also know what depots it Operated at.

I know it Operated in Newcastle when new but would anyone know what depots it operated when it was in Sydney in Later days in its life ? and when was it transferred to Sydney ? and when was it withdrawn from Government Service ?

Any photos of it would be good also if anyone has any.

It was in Newcastle until the late 90's - came to Willoughby, withdrawn August 2001, sold to Premier Illawarra in November of that year

The only reason Iam asking for photos and history on Mercedes 0305 2199 is because I have purchased it for preservation. But I now have now got all the info I need now.

Looking at 2199 in that livery kinda reminds you of Toongabbie transport buses.But 2199 is very good nick for its age who ever had the bus before you certainly looked after it.
