Whitecars at Cairns
On layover just outside the town in Cairns is this typical Whitecars vehicle used on their network of regional bus services in the Atherton Tablelands. Sadly Whitecars is no more, there was no sign of them when visiting in 2009 and they have disappeared from the web which is disappointing as their website had an excellent illustrated history of the undertaking. Services appear to have been taken over by Travel North.

Whitecars 38
Whitecars 38, another on the fleet on layover near the Whitecars office in Cairns town probably in August 1992.
Whitecars
Whitecars Denning Landseer
A typical Australian style vehicle, a Denning Landseer, on service to Atherton from Karunda, where it is seen. Though Karunda's markets are squarely aimed at tourists, they do attract local interest too.
Whitecars
Whitecars at Karunda
A more modern vehicle from the fleet, 33 (614OPA), also at Karunda, on route back to Cairns.
Whitecars
Whitecars 34
These small Japanese vehicles are very popular in Australia, and most 'big' fleets have a number of such vehicles. Back in the UK their place would probably be taken by Mercedes, though the more closely related Toyota/Caetano combo. Whitecars 34 is seen on a private hire, laying over in Cairns one evening, probably in August 1989.
