Stored Punchbowl Hinos returned to service

Post by Punchbowl Tiger Cub »

Fleetlists,People,
Noted working Route 7 Easter Show working tonight was reinstated Hino PMC m/o 9103 reregistration of either m/o 8607 or 8608.

Will have do some checking but I am lead to believe both the former m/o 8607 and m/o 8608 which were in storage at PBC Goulburn's Marulan Depot since 11/09 have been returned to service to cope with extra work resulting from the 22/3 reworked routes.

Will pass on details as they checked.

They were registered as 9607 (ex 5407) and 9608 (ex 5424) when the plates went onto the new Scania K230UBs

R-C,
Quite right,had a bit of brain fade last night after a long day.

Yes,should read 9607 and 9608.

Sorry for the typo.

Pretty sure i saw 9103 about a week ago. I was wondering why there was a Hino with a tacky manual desto!
