One of the delights of Switzerland is it's many small railway stations which seem to be at the centre of the community usually with a cafe and hotel nearby. I was going to say unspoilt but like everywhere else times change and the public expects better facilities and at Sursee they have provided a concrete canopy to protect bus passengers from the elements. One wonders how much protection it would give in a snow blizzard but at least it would be effective against the odd shower or something they seem to get a lot of in Switzerland sunshine. Many of the PTT Regie garages are well off the tourist trail and when an Englishman went to seek out the six buses at the depot in Triengen it caused quite a bit of excitement amongst the drivers and on my return the driver back to Sursee was already expecting me to be waiting at the bus stop. Being a sub-depot of Aarau it housed it housed Saurer RH's, and more interestingly the longer three-door variant, but interlopers soon started to appear like this tranferred Mercedes O405 working one of the garage's two routes to Schoftland.
