Welcome to the Melbourne Bus Depot. As you might have expected this is the home of an assortment of Melbourne buses. Although the route buses in Melbourne are mainly operating as feeder services to trains and trams, that doesn't mean the development of buses are slow and insignficant. In fact, in the recent years big improvements such as introduction of kneeling and low-floor buses, longer buses, as well as better co-ordination with trains which make a bus ride in Melbourne very enjoyable. In this page you can take a first-hand experience of these buses, as well as some superbly restored classic buses, so sit back and enjoy ...


What's going on lately?

A trial section for sightings and happenings around Melbourne buses renewed at irregular intervals.

   1       $1.40    $1.40   ----
   2       $1.40    $1.60   +20c
   3       $1.80    $1.80   ----
   4       $1.80    $2.00   +20c
   5       $2.20    $2.40   +20c

Route 600 was extended to Albert Park during the GP race. Melbourne Bus Link #324 (OVO361) was seen just outside the old St. Kilda Station with a destination of "Grand Prix" (I really like this destination!)
