Following on from my previous post, search under Photos SA section for CMCMANUS parts 8 and 74 for pics of Slattery's depot, as described above.

Sorry for bringing up an old post. My understanding is Slattery's had multiple bus depots, and that there at one stage was a depot on Wilpena Avenue (Klemzig) that multiple operators once used. Can anyone confirm any locations? Thanks in advance I believe that Slattery's only had the one Depot, whi...

Yeah, like North Korea!

I believe the first photo in the above group was actually Transways number 17, they had two both Leyland Leopards. Can’t remember the fleet number of the second unit. Both units had electric gearshift the same as 700 series MTT buses. I actually drove for Transway when the bought these two buses. W...

I don't think that we can rely on the proposed route numbers that appear to be out of context. remember that is says on the Parliamentary Paper ...

I was on the understanding that you can go out for essentials, like shopping.

Fixed terms would make it next to impossible for a sitting prime minister to call a double dissolution election where my idea of all 3 levels of government going at dissolution the same time a federal candidate would have a group of state candidates as a win by a federal candidate means a win for t...

Definitely NOT Greta Thunberg. I strongly believe that she is a puppet. BUT BUT she took a ride in a boat to avoid plane to the USA. I wonder what material the boat was made out of, and how the material for the boat was made?!! But hey, Greta is oh so wonderful. Cough UR cough cough cccough I do so...

Also, where did Bridgland operate from?

So, which operator runs the service?

Thank you, tonyp!

tonyp,

Could you please outline why you think single leaf doors aren't good? I am trying to understand the issues here, but am unsure as to your reasoning.

Thanks in advance,

Paul

School Holidays?

Quoting from above … "In my opinion, that's some hair-brained pole placement there - you don't put poles right in front of dedicated standing spaces." The "hair-brained placement" is in fact opposite a door, where people naturally congregate. Anyone short could not reach the overhead straps, or thro...

Hi, Inspector.

You indicated in a previous photo spread that 35 was ex-MTT 604.

On the brighter side, we should stop seeing all of the "look at what the Government is doing; how good are we?" ads now that the parties have to pay for it themselves, rather than the public purse having to bear the cost ...

I can recall that, at my first ever full time employment, I would frequent KFC regularly, and this bbq chicken was introduced not long after I started work. I would estimate that it was in about 1981/1982 ...

I know that this is about NSW, but search for "Sylvia Birdseye" and you will find information about this remarkable South Australian!

Where's the "evidence"? I don't see any sign of a delivery vehicle - other than the bus!

Paul

Thanks Trevor, this is fantastic. Incidentally before the buses were repainted, was it common to see a former private bus of one operator on the route of another former operator with all that variety in one depot? Speaking purely from my personal recollection, I believe that it was not very common....

Honestly, the comments you blokes make about Bustech buses are, quite frankly, puerile - if you have genuine criticisms of their products, then argue your points out, in a reasonable and well constructed manner. Ok then, how about the air con being pre-set to 22 degrees and the driver is unable to ...

I would suggest Driver Bus Lines - and the desto would have said "Caution - School Bus"
