So many memories of these wonderful vehicles. I would often go to White Bay as a child and watch these negotiate the turn into Victoria Rd coming from the city. They would have quite a list to port and I would often see items such as prams and shopping buggies sliding off the rear platform. I even witnessed a conductor sliding along on his rear end after sliding off the platform. I believe he was negotiating the stairs and missed the hand rail. Thanks again for the memories.

The front door was accordion style folding canvas, the power operated doors came later maybe about 1960-62?. Stavros

I remember Albion and Regent on the front owl as I went to school in Strathfield in the 1950s. I thought at the time the coach work was standardised ……we’re the chassis and running gear standardised?? Stavros

What did you use to film the 2016 reenactment? It was nice that it wasn't typical hi-res standard of today. Had a more natural look.

The re-enactment was filmed in HD, possibly it was the editing which you liked.

@@busestramstrains5819 Ok. Interesting. After seeing the 1976 vision, I was expecting the 2016 to look too sharp, but was surprised how soft it looked.
