It does happen... Of course there are only three of them so chances of seeing them are rare...

1133 came into Morley from the depot to start (I presume) a full circle departing Morley around 0650 this morning. Not exactly sounding healthy at the moment...

Can beat that Mandurahbus. Me and a certain friend of mine had 2219 this afternoon. 000,545km on the clock when we finished.

Also 1317 was on the circle this morning. I assume Nth Freo must have a 99 now!
If it's not a ZF, take it back!

More than likely a Circle bus broke down and was changed off with 1317

I've been wondering about it Phil, because not long ago at around the same time of morning I saw 1312 doing one.

Also PoweredbyCNG just had 1853 on a 507T!!!!
