I was informed by an anonymous reader that two of the Lincs Road Car Bristol double deckers that were once based at the Boston depot finished up owned by a tour company at Katoomba in the Blue Mountains NSW, this info was given to them by Steve Shaw who as a school kid lived in the prefabs in Carlton Road and has lived in Australia for many years.
