Not Goulburn. The coach parking bay has room for 3 full size vehicles in a row.

Not Leeton, not Albury. A few more clues about the place..... some coaches were built in this town, although to the best of my knowledge none ever carried TV plates.

Not Tamworth, not Parkes. While obviously the town didn't exist at the time, it would have a future link to a bicentenary being celebrated this year.

Not Wagga Wagga and not Forbes. It's not in southern NSW and not in northern NSW. The remainder of the answers are dotted in a semi circle around this place, close but not quite there yet. Think coach builders (well one in particular anyway) !

Tamworth has already been knocked out. The coach/bus entrance to this Maccas is via a back street, off the main road. My clue about a coach builder isn't as obvious as it may seem, and isn't Phoenix, Austral Pacific or Ansair at Tamworth. What else....Ogden's don't operate services in this town and the town has one main operator and a number of school service operators.

Not Muswellbrook. This macca's would have had the crowds queued around the corner recently.

Not Dubbo or Mudgee (see previous clues as Ogdens operate in both of these towns). On this discussion board we've debated Denning vs Austral. At this Maccas recently the customers would have been debating .... vs ...... Will reveal tomorrow if not picked.

We have a winner: :)

Cobb & Co built coaches here, none would have been on TV plates.
Lachlan Macquarie named the town (bicentenary this year of his becoming NSW Governor)
The debate at this Macca's recently would have been Ford vs Holden when the customers would have flooded the place during the racing weekend.
It's McDonalds Bathurst.

Over to you UNITED DIESEL 15.
