Atkinson Bus - Klemzig SA

Post by Tas Bus Nut »

With the influx of historic photos being posted recently, I thought I'd go through some of the old photos I purchased off eBay.
Unfortunately, I don't have the location of the photos (or can't find them) so I'll trust those in the know, will assist. :wink:
After "googling" Klemzig, I found it was in S.A., so hence I've posted the bus here :mrgreen: Don't know the operator. :oops:

The SA number plate (all numbers, pre 1967) would have saved you the google search. The 449xx number plate would put it in the early 60s, the bus certainly doesn't look familiar to me though I was a bit young then.
Thanks for the photo, any old SA stuff is great.

Looks like a Syd Wood bodied bus similar to the one in this photo http://www.busaustralia.com/gallery/dis ... ?pos=-5659
Living in the Shire.

That would be one of the Slattery's vehicles that operated from their depot behind their house in Marian Road, South Payneham.

I should have added that I have seen a colour photo on the board elsewhere of this bus's sister (SA449.552) taken at the Victoria Square Terminus of the Klemzig route.
