It's a sad state of affairs when a Bustech like the one pictured above, is starting to look "classic" to your eyes. What will it be like in another twelve years.
I guess events like motorfest will save the day.
NSW, the state that embraces mediocrity.

Swift, I think it means you're getting old. :) The realisation came to me as far as buses go when I started to see buses being scrapped
that I'd photographed being delivered brand new or at the bus show.

You sound like me, I remember buses that seemed so modern when I was a kid aren't even around any more... Just a few in private collections now... :cry:
