Title: Some black and white STA Photos
Post by: Sir Pompously on November 02, 2008, 06:16:29 PM
When I was in Sydney last month, I took these hand held black and white photos during dusk at Circular Quay. Here are the results.

It's a night time route service, and there are a few of them around the City to my knowledge.

Oh, BTW Todd, nice photos. A very "Sydney" feel to it.

Oh, and forgot to mention - http://www.sydneybuses.info/uploads/File/pdfs/regular_timetables/130tt.pdf
Timetable for the night time services on the Northern Beaches, including the "Pumpkin Bus - 130".
