Great stuff. Good ol' Mason Williams ("Classical Gas", great piece of music), but that came out in 1968-69.

Great memories. I lived near Brookvale bus depot. The old double deckers with the tight spiral stairs. The leopards and the short wheel-based buses. And the controversy of the Atlanteans being designed for operation without a conductor.

My sister was a conductor at that time and my brother in-law was an operator or driver at the same time

Thanks Bruce. In the uni Xmas vacation I would work as a conductor on these in the late 70s. Enjoyed it and the people at the Ryde depot.

I used to get one of the single deckers from Crows Nest to Balmoral beach from 1970-1972.

Was that "Mr Whippy" far left at 1.36 minutes? Some great shots and great memories, all just about run by the private sector now.

It was interesting seeing the Leopards among all the old stuff. Later on they were interspersed among much modern stuff.

Brings back great memories of the Sydney I grew up in. As a school kid and teenager I used to ride the upper deck of the double deckers- all kids preferred the upstairs, especially the very front seats with their wide-angle view. We kids used to board and alight from the rear platform while the double decker was pulling in or pulling out from a stop -- not a good idea, of course, but with no door and the back, it was tempting. On quite a few occasions, jumping on the back of a moving double-decker was the only way I avoided missing the bus and being late for school.
