Metro Springfield

[stevegj52]

While in Tasmanaia for the recent TBCS annual tour, I had the opportunity along with KimB10m to check out Metro's Springfield Depot. I would like to thank Neil ( Tas Bus Nut) for arranging the visit and Management at Metro for allowing us to have a look around the Depot and also thankyou to Phil for showing us around and answering many Questions. I managed to take a few photo's including the underside of a Volvo B10MA
