The Featured Bus for May 2013 is Bus 734 – a MAN SL202 evaluation bus
Bus 734 was a MAN SL202 which operated for ACTION as an evaluation bus during 1991.
It seated 43 passengers and, since its body was from Ansair, its interior was very similar to ACTION’s Renault PR100.2 buses.
As part of the evaluation process, Bus 734 carried a trial livery, which retained the orange and blue of ACTION’s fleet at the time, however white was the dominating colour of the theme.
Since leaving ACTION, it has been known to operate for Parramatta-Ryde Bus Service (3567), Baxter’s Buslines (50), Transit First (72) and Veolia (693).
It also operated for the Olympic Road Transport Authority in Sydney during the 2000 Olympics.
