This very old thread caught my eye. I think the AOA refered to was part of the big VISA GO campaign? If someone can confirm that and still has the photo I’d be very grateful if they’d repost it.

The 3858 was one of the first few buses I photographed, in what might have been its first AOA – the first I saw, anyway. Late 2003.

As far as I know it’s still operational in Newcastle.

There can't be many buses in NSW where the AOA doesn't cover the passenger windows!

In that picture, it looks like some of the window covering is missing?

Appreciate the bus back pic.
Good to see not only washed up women actresses getting the pantyhose over the lens soft focus filter.
