It's about time all you guys posted a pix of yourselves so if we run into each other we can get acquainted. Thanks to a pic on here of Mr Derwent I was able to make myself known to him out & about one day. Also it doesn't seem fair that Metro Tas should get his head on here all the time and no-one else. He's turning into quite the little media "friendly" person of late. I'll start the ball rolling and wish you all a very Merry Christmas and a great new year.

Nope!! Off re-collection, buses didn't run that way (downhill) in Molle St. Besides, there wasn't any large garden areas that I'm aware.

Could be Isaac. Someone from the old days too, judging by their choice of their username :lol: :lol: Didn't think ANYONE loved the old butterboxes :shock:
However, in saying that, one of my personal favourites WERE the early BT51s (#400 > #426) because they were the LAST of green/cream buses :(

Welcome to Mr Hino bt 51. I'm really not sure where this one is but I'm having a stab at Arthur/Burnett St, Nth Hobart somewhere with the brown block of flats in the background being the ones that are no longer around the bottom of Warwick St. Somewhere around the Crescent Hotel is my guess.
