Where’s all the wind noise coming from, in a coach?

This is the fancier model of the one I drove for well over a decade, mine was an early 80's model with an International 6 cylinder and Allison automatic. Loud, slow, smoky but the most reliable bus we had. When it was semi-retired it was still often called out to rescue broken down new buses that were bought back then, it was made fun of but in hindsight it should have been appreciated more for it's rugged simplicity and reliability. It's good to see people keeping some of them alive. The other one we had was a mid 80's with a manual 5 speed straight-piped V8, that thing sounded awesome taking off at wide open throttle, an older bloke drove that for over a decade too before retiring and passing it onto a younger driver. Don't see any them anymore I think the old LPG systems killed them off.

Never been to Newcastle might go there one day

It only feels like yesterday that these buses were rolling on our roads. These and the faithful Scania 14.5m on the good old 400 route. I only 37yo and all my youth/young adult buses are gone. Very sad

Ex Martin's Albury No. 91

Very nice. Quite a tidy looking bus inside and out too.

A far cry from the Denning Phoenix.

Nice exhaust brake! Some classy driving

Sounds like it’s been converted to a ALLISON AUTO. Definitely not a standard Zf . Either that or it’s an RK converted from manual.

I caught this one to school on Friday she’s a loud bus when the driver floors it hah

Ah yes my daily bus! (Just I catch one that’s from the Nowra coaches group)

Ah yes the goat bus of the Shoalhaven.
