Lady Di joins ACTION

Spotted this interesting pic of Lady Diana (Princess Di) joining an ACTION bus with Royal Party while in Canberra in 1985 - looks like one of the former charter fleet:-

Thanks Buzz

- so our Gallery has links into some/all of the bus photocollection held in Pictures Australia?

Ours were sourced from RATEC so that may be where the link exists.

The RATEC photos appear to be photos of the photos - not the originals.

Having a further look at that site - there's a lot of good historical photos there:
