Re: Bus explosion n Yokine

Apparently the problem was leaking hot oil in the engine compartment, this has also been the reason for a previous fire on a gas bus.

Re: Help to identify strange vehicle!

Most of the unmarked TRG landcruisers have metal decking at the back of the vehicle for standing on and a roof rack which gives them something to hang on to aswell...also very dark tint on the windows.

Unmarked Astra

Travelling down the freeway on Monday just south of Greenwood Station was a silver unmarked Astra that had pulled over a 4wd tradie.

LED's in the back window looked bigger than the trade mark LED bars usually seen on a parcel shelf, and LED's in the front up near the sunvisor/rear view mirror.

Re: Beverley & Beverley Central

Wes, great pics, looks like they have finally moved from the old station on the main st into a fairly large shed.

Any pics of the new station and when did they move?

Re: General fire discussions

While walking the dog with the misses about half an hour or so ago, noticed smoke coming from the Ossie Park industrial area. Soon after heard sirens coming north up the freeway.
