Below are a few photos taken from various locations around the National Arboretum on the open day last Saturday.
We start off with 2 of the 4 or so Renault PR180's in attendance. There is a high possiblity that this is the last mass charter these buses could do for ACTION

To cope with demand, the SNT buses were also used to shuttle people from the old Arboretum on the lakeside to the new Arboretum on the hill.
Great shots and beautiful scenery! Did you happen to get any shots of the new and old artics side by side?
Sadly not, the only time they were bunched together was when I was leaving.
Nice photos, looks nice now that some of the trees are finally growing into a decent height!
Excellent photos, thanks.
McKillop College annual start of school year Mass @ Tuggeranong Southern Cross Stadium will likely see another large number of Renault artics doing the honors.
