Where was the Footes' depot? Looks like a reasonably big setup.

Yes,

[cmcmanus]

the depot was on the corner of days/regency road

the Foote's Bedford SNZ061 is in the Australian Road Transport Hall of Fame in Alice Springs looking very much like that.

The Thomas Tour's depot is listed on the photo caption as Goodwood Rd, does any one know where on Goodwood Rd their depot was or the street corner it was on. (Thanks in advance)

Yes that would be nice. And are there any more in this collection?

I am sure that there was some threads done on Bedfords a few moons back but the picture may not be there now and one about Choats passenger service I ain`t sure how far back the threads.

It was not that hard to find - a simple search for Choat brought this thread to light http://www.busaustralia.com/forum/viewt ... 10&t=39862 .
