New Zealand Railways Road Services

The first Hino vehicles purchased by New Zealand Railway Road Services were 30 Emslie bodied Hino BT51 coaches. These were followed by the Hino BG100, the first non-Bedford vehicle puchased by NZ Railways in large numbers since it standardised on Bedfords in the 1950s. 103 were purchased with a mix of NZMB and Emslie body work. The initial vehicles were 2 axled but a change in the road tax for high axle weights resulted in those deilvered from 1979 onwards having three axles.
