Hin Company Bus Depot

Hin Company Bus Depot, Brick Kiln Road, Penang (30 January 2006)


The Hin Company Bus Depot (GPS: 5.4122, 100.32813) is a disused bus depot along Brick Kiln Road, in George Town, Penang. It was built in the Art Deco style. After a consolidation exercise, the bus company was rebranded KGN Hin Bus, and continued for a few more years before folding over.

Today the Hin Company Bus Depot remains in a disused state. It is one of the prettiest bus depots in Penang, though at the moment it appears neglected and overlooked.
