Ellenbrook Station

Post by auntys_eyes »

I have been listening to channel 54 (Midland) tonight and i thought i heard a few calls to/from the new Ellenbrook station and vehicles. Can anyone confirm if Ellenbrook station is now up and running, and if so, what their station/vehicle call sign will be. I assume it will be HE***, but one should never assume anything :roll:

According to a report some months ago in the Community newspaper, about the new station nearing completion and the plans for its opening, Ellenbrook will service areas including Belhus, Bullsbrook, Ellenbrook (including Morgan Fields and Vale estates), Henley Brook, Lexia, The Vines, Upper Swan, Walyunga National Park, Whiteman (including Whiteman Park), Brigadoon, Baskerville and Millendon, and will ease the burden of Ballajura, Kiara and Midland stations.

As there's a hugh over supply of police at the moment :wink: NOT :lol: I wonder if it will be like Kiara and just be mostly officers who head over to the station from Midland during their shift?

Listening to channel 54 (Midland) and just heard VKI talking to HE101 and dispatching jobs for Ellenbrook and The Vines. Will assume therefore that Ellenbrook Station is HE100 and vehicles are HE***.

The station is not open atm, the HE cars must be based at Midland until the station is operational.

Lets hope it opens up soon :wink:

Saw one of the HE cars driving along Middle Swan Road a couple of days ago. May have been HE101? Nice new fully marked VE Omega.

Whilst in Midland today saw HE101. It's a BA Falcon ute w/ secure pod... so the Omega i saw the other day (above) must have been HE102.
