How much use this powerful Scania tow truck gets in the Brisbane fleet is unknown, but it is probably an essential piece of kit for promptly dealing with breakdowns and consequent blockages on the city's busway network. Here it is Adelaide Street on August 8th 2009 to remove Mercedes 608, which had disgraced itself whilst operating the free service to the Ekka.

With its front wheels now floating in the air, C608 is ready for its suspended tow back to the care of the depot mechanics.

After a while, all is ready, all the appropriate safety signage and stop and tail lights activated and the Scania powers forward with its valuable load on tow behind.
