History
On 3 June 1909, the North Sydney Tram Depot opened to replace the Ridge Street Tram Depot. On 15 September 1940, a bus depot opened on the adjacent site. With the closure of the North Sydney tram network in June 1958 and the opening of Willoughby Bus Depot in July 1958, the tram depot closed and sold for redevelopment as the Big Bear Shopping Centre, while the bus depot was downgraded to a satellite depot.[1]
As of April 2020, it has an allocation of 57 buses.[2]

gollark: How do you end up with a stupidly large civilization but barely any life extension stuff?
gollark: I'm wondering how many 32 bit Unix systems will be around in 2038. Probably a lot. Inevitably a few will be in some sort of critical system.
gollark: Also, everyone knows that time begins in 1970, not 1999.
gollark: It's probably better than current Earth, but not exactly a wonderful society to live in.
