545 May 2000 ETS #545 returning to Westwood after a morning peak hour run.

546 December 23, 1999 546 is shown sitting inside of the Ferrier Compound. At this point, it looked like this bus was retired as they had pulled the farebox out and possibly the radio too? But this bus had the last laugh! It came back to service in 2001 for the IAAF track and field games, but was retired afterwards.

546 ETS #546 sitting inside of the Ferrier Compound, waiting for it's last chance to stretch it's legs during August 2001.

546 August 3, 2001 ETS #546 back on the road after being stored in the Ferrier Compound for well over 1 year. The opening ceremonies for the IAAF Games occured on a Friday, so, not only was ETS providing peak hour service, they needed to provide Park N' Ride, and the opening ceremonies were by far the busiest of all of the days provided transit service to the IAAF venues. It might have only been this one day #546 saw service. It was only useable on Park N' Ride service as it didn't get a farebox back, and transit service was included with IAAF tickets.

546 August 3, 2001 ETS #546 at Commonwealth Stadium during the opening ceremonies for the IAAF games, heading back out for another load of passengers.
