Subject :Ist Battalion The Sherwood Foresters Part10 - A Night Out in Johore Bahru, The Bus Ticket
Published By : None 
Location : Johore Bahru
Estimated Year : 1960
Media Type : Ephemera
Source : Lennie Brookes, UK
Remark : In the 1950's and 60's it was quite common for Commonwealth servicemen to take a trip across the causeway to Johore for an evening's entertainment as it was much more 'fun' there than in Singapore.

This bus ticket was bought by our donor's husband Ray Brookes who served with the Sherwood Foresters at the tail end of the official Malayan Emergency. The Ticket cost 80 cents and took him from Johore Bahru to Rochore Road, Singapore. No doubt he enjoyed his evening out!
