Tiger Tours is an Australian coach charter company in Sydney. Until October 2011, it operated route bus services in the Sutherland Shire. ==History== Until October 2011, Tiger Tours was known as Caringbah Bus Service, and operated route bus services in Sydney Bus Region 11. The company started in 1942, when Keith Wood bought route 50, which operated between Caringbah and Miranda with diversions to Taren Point as well.〔(Sydney Bus Routes (1925) 26-50 ), Retrieved 26 October 2014〕 The Taren Point diversion was sold to Sutherland Bus Service in May 1955. The name Caringbah Bus Service was introduced later that year. In 1992, the company bought a portion of South Western Coach Lines' route 114 (Miranda – Caringbah) and merged it with its route 50.〔"Route alterations" ''Fleetline'' issue 201 April 1992 page 70〕 In 1993, route 50 was reorganised as: *977: Miranda - Caringbah - Lilli Pilli via Willarong Road and Crescent Road *978: Miranda - Caringbah - Port Hacking via Gannons Point and Dolans Bay These services operated from Miranda to Port Hacking, Dolans Bay and Lilli Pilli via Caringbah station, and school services in the area. In 2009 they were changed so that route 977 no longer operated via Willarong Road and Crescent Road but operated direct via Port Hacking Road. Willarong Road and Crescent Road were then covered by route 978. In October 2011, the route bus services were sold to Veolia Transport with nine buses.〔(Caringbah Bus Service ) Australian Bus Fleet Lists 30 September 2011〕 Caringbah Bus Service had long operated a coach charter business under the Tiger Tours banner and this business continues with 11 vehicles. On 1 May 2015, the business was purchased by Dunn Motor Traction. It continues to trade as Tiger Tours out of the Taren Point depot, but vehicles now operate under sister company Telford's Bus & Coach's operating licence.〔(Tiger Tours ) Australian Bus Fleet Lists〕〔"Tiger Tours" ''Australian Bus Panorama'' issue 31/1 July 2015 page 53〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Tiger Tours」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
