The Two Airlines Policy was relaxed in the early 1980s when TAA introduced the Airbus A300B4, whilst Ansett chose to purchase the Boeing 767.
Ansett wasted little time in counter-advertising, urging its customers to fly in a Boeing, not a 'Bus'.

Even though the #Boeing767 was the first #Boeing wide-body with a two person #cockpit, five 767-200 were built for #Ansett Australia with a separate flight engineer panel/third cockpit seat, as their pilot union demanded the redundant role was kept even on these newer aircrafts

In 1945 this was Kingsford Smith airport in #Sydney with runway 22 intersecting the Botany Goods railway line.
It should be no surprise to anyone that in In June 1950 a taxing #Ansett DC3 struck an empty coal #train on the crossing in raining and dark conditions.
The railway was moved in 1960.
