Westside.

Does anybody know what make & model 25 WBC is? Meanwhile all new buses/loaned buses from PRT are listed.

Are we sure there is a 25? Going by the trend it could be a Merc 1316 but would be better to confirm prior to adding to the FL

It was already added to the lists as 25 WBC. It has ? in all fields so might as well delete it until further (if it exists) information is found.

BPQ did say another one Hornibrook - unsure of what fleet number has been allocated to it. All six of the Volvo B7RLEs were in the depot today too so no more info on the fleet number of them.

Looking through the Westside list, I have a few questions to raise:
1) 18-WBC which is listed as a K230UB, has the VIN prefix which would point it to being a L94UB.
2) 32-WBC which is listed as a K230UB, has the VIN prefix which would point it to being a K94UB.
Unless both are mistakes? Can anyone shed some light on this?

698LIG is now 22WBC.

Five of the Volvo B7RLEs are 01WBC, 20WBC, 21WBC, 22WBC and 23WBC. The other one I am sure is 02WBC but needs to be confirmed. The new Scania K230UB Northcoast also appears to be 19WBC, but this will need to be confirmed.

18WBCs body number is 486.

Two BCI buses arrived at Westside this week, air conditioned school buses. Rego 082 LLI and the second was not registered just using a trade plate. These two buses are 57 seaters. Also 03 WBC Volvo B7R in service with Volgren bodywork the same as the others that are now in revenue service in Translink livery. 25 WBC does not exist as this rego combo is unavailable.

The 2 ACCO's are long gone, replaced with Scania K94IB/Bustech SBV's which take up the same rego combination

The Hiace Commuters do not have WBC Plates & are used for Driver change overs. The Hino Mini Bus has not got the WBC No.Plates.
