Old map at Greensborough
One of the things that I would like to talk about in this blog are what could be considered 'glimpses of the past'. And this map I saw at Greensborough Station is a good example of that.
So, peep the image below (apologies for the quality):

What's the image?
If you don't know what it is, it is a map that is intended to show the bus stops that train replacement buses depart from.
But that is not the thing that makes this map interesting.
What makes it interesting is that it mentions bus routes that no longer exist. Routes such as the 560, the 562, the 563, and the Sunday only 569 are mentioned on this map but none of those operate anymore. The mention of the route 569 makes me believe that the map was produced sometime before 2007, with 2007 being the year when the 569 ceased running.
I will briefly go over these four bus routes and talk about when they stopped running
