I can't believe I missed that last one...........

Anyway, as it's an open floor, where is this Westbus?

[Frances]

Suburb and street please............

[Centralian]

South Wentworthville, the cross street in front of the bus being Old Prospect Road ?

[R44]

hampden and old prospect??

No to both of those............

It's been over 5 days and no one has guessed the correct answer (it also hasn't been revealed).

Where is this bus? Street and suburb required.

[Frances]

It's been over 5 days and no one has guessed the correct answer (it also hasn't been revealed).

Yes well, weekends are not a good time for me to find time to go on the internet, but I'm here now and I can reveal that it was the corner of Quarry Rd and Mimosa Rd, Bossley Park, taken from the shopping centre car park.

I didn't think it was that difficult.............

[Frances]

Where is this bus? Street and suburb required.

Queen Street, Auburn?

[shovelyjoe]

Queen Street, Auburn is incorrect.

[Leyland Olympian]

Beaumount rd Mount Kuringgai?

-WTF is that bus?

[shovelyjoe]

Not Beaumont Road I'm afraid. Beaumont Road is too curvy to be the one in the picture.

The bus is obviously a Merc (probably an O 305) and I believe it used to be in service in Canberra. Someone please confirm what I said or correct me.

[Frances]

Long Street, Smithfield?

[shovelyjoe]

Not Long Street, Smithfield.

[Leyland Olympian]

1260 MO: Mercedes-Benz O305: WDB30700121039334: Ansair: MB1465: 7/84: B45D: ex YJE 348; ex Sydney Buses (3523) m/o 560; ex North & Western Bus Lines, Gladesville m/o 560; ex m/o 7206

Quite a lot of history there.

Second Go:

-Salisbury St Ashquith?

Quite a lot of history there.

Interesting, where did you find that out? The fleetlists still appear to be down.

Second Go:

-Salisbury St Ashquith?

Incorrect, I'm afraid.

[Leyland Olympian]

Scrivener St, Warwick Farm?

[Frances]

I don't know if Leyland Olympian got it the same way, but I looked up that information too, not that it helped me figure out where it was. Fleetlists may be down, but if you do a Google search for the bus's numberplate and include Fleetlists in the search criteria and then click on the link to Google's cached result rather than the link to Fleetlist, you'll get everything that was on that page.

[shovelyjoe]

Wouldn't have thought of doing it that way, quite smart franfran.

Scrivener St, Warwick Farm is incorrect.

[Frances]

Davis Road, Wetherill Park?

Are any of us in the right part of Sydney?

[shovelyjoe]

Davis Road, Wetherill Park is incorrect.

Your initial Queen Street, Auburn guess was actually the closest.

[Frances]

Bachell Avenue, Lidcombe?

[shovelyjoe]

Afraid not. The answer is Derby Street, Silverwater.

Open floor.

[Frances]

Open floor.

Any ideas where these two buses are?

[shovelyjoe]

Gordon bus interchange?

[Frances]

Given that no-one managed to get the Bossley Park one when there was a visible shop sign in the photo, I thought that this one would last a bit longer but, no, it didn't. Yes it's Gordon.

Over to you..............
