Bus 808 was a Renault PR100.2 | |||
==Notes== | |||
* It was first registered on 12 July 1989 | |||
* Its National Gallery 'Elvis Lives' all over advertisement was launched in August 1989. | |||
* On 4 July 1992 it was transferred from Kingston Depot to Tuggeranong Depot. | |||
* Bus 808 was fitted with a trial Alcatel Flipdot Destination Display | |||
* This vehicle was reportedly popular with drivers (particularly the Elvis fans!) | |||
* It was one of fifty ACTION Buses loaned to the Olympic Road Transport Authority (ORTA) during 2000 for the Sydney Olympics. | |||
* Although Bus 808 is a Mk1 PR100.2, like other former AOAs, it carried the Mk2 Livery. | |||
* A combination of the Mk2 livery and Flipdot desto often lead people to mistake the vehicle for a Mk2. The side flip-dot display however was in the same place as the Mk1 roller, rather than built into the roofline. | |||
* Bus 808 was withdrawn from service at Tuggeranong Depot in early January 2012 | |||
* It temporarily returned to service at Tuggeranong Depot between 1 February 2012 and 24 February 2012. | |||
