Notes

  • As of October 1955, services operated between Kingston and Ainslie via a range of combinations. For further details, refer to Network 1948
  • The route was modified on 19 August 1963 to operate via Commonwealth Ave
  • The route was modified on 20 June 1966 to operate via Flynn Pl and Langton Cres
  • The route appears to have been modified in March 1967, with the directions omitting Flynn Dr and Commonwealth Ave, though it may not have actually changed, given it is unclear how the route would have otherwise made it from Langton Cres to London Cct.
  • 13th St was renamed Tarana Cres, which is opposite Narrabundah Terminus, the eastern terminus point for this route.
