There were some Glenhuntly cars that ran through to West Coburg. I
remember seeing both GH Ls and W3s running on route 55.
There was also an Essendon run in the morning peak that came from
West Coburg and ran down Swanston Street. It ran via Elizabeth and
Victoria Streets to reach Swanston Street.
I think some Essendon cars also ran out to Toorak in the morning
peak.

Don,re Essendon route numbers,standard procedure in the 60s and 70s
was to show 56 on the south end of the car and 55 on the north
end.As
I remember there were odd workings through to St.Kilda Beach and of
course these showed 55 at both ends.Peter Bruce.PS.of course there
were some peak services supplied by South Melbourne,I think 2 trips
in each peak.I have a feeling that Malvern might even have even had
one table with a West Coburg on it,maybe you can help here Jeff?As
a
South Melbourne driver I always loved going out through the
Park,especially running in after the PM peak,hills and curves and
no
passengers/stops so you could really give it some stick,very
occasionally you might jag a Thompson[BTH motors] and that was real
fun.But I digress.........PB.
