Something a bit different here. Two supplementary rolls for ACTION.
The first is from a Leyland National and has the distinctive NSW DGT font. Maybe these were prepared by Chullora Workshops, but surely there must be a story to tell?
The second is from a Smithfield Volvo B58 acquired by Hopkinsons.
From photos on the web it appears that they were used more regularly than their No.3 Box cousin in Sydney/Newcastle, but maybe that's a discussion to have.
Cheers.

Used to be
NOT VIA KAHIBA
NOT VIA MARKS POINT
on Newcastle buses a few years back
That first roll definitely looks like Sydney stuff from the 60s/70s.

Makes me wonder if the dept of the interior had these made up for them by Chullora?boronia wrote:
