NZ Railways Road Services Hino bus


New Zealand Road Services Hino RK 7199, the third to enter service in 1987, stands inside the NZR Road Services depot in Lincoln Road, Masterton in January 1988 still wearing the Road Services livery. It was the first time one had travelled to Masterton on charter from the Hutt Valley, and the following day Wallace Trickett had the pleasure of taking the bus out to Castlepoint. The depot was originally the town's Opera House, and following the demise of the NZRRS/InterCity service to Masterton from Wellington in October 1990, the building eventually became an auction house.
