The Ritchies list on here shows 327 and 401 on the active list and 456 as disposed... are those records up to date.
Its definitely not 401 for which there is a photo of on Flickr of on Ritchies livery and on Omnibus society page in Howick livery. A really big help would help would be would be photos of the other three and I wonder would anyone have taken any.. I the old days in Auckland it was a challenge to cop every bus of every fleet on film..... including Howick and old Eastern
This thing about rubber mounted windows could be a clue... were there many Hino RR172 Ranger Mk2 built?
