 Wynyard's main depot in the town of the same name has plenty of space and some of it is used to store withdrawn vehicles, about which little is documented online. Here are a pair of Toyota minibuses - 18 (C92ET) and 63 (no rego) - either side are Mercedes, on the left of the picture is 68 (see later) and on the right 77, which appears to have a Custom body.

 From a different angle we see 68, 18 and 77, the Toyota possibly the only one extant back in February 2019, but no longer.

 This B&CI Gemilang bodied Kia Cosmos was acquired from Oxley Community Transport Service in Tamworth in 2013. The bus was new in 2000 and the 43 seat body includes a tail lift. The bus, 17 (B64ZH), has since been withdrawn.

 In this rear view of 17 it is assumed the chair lift is accessed from the nearside rear.

 This Mercedes OC1621 with Denning Majestic coachwork was seen in a withdrawn condition with Wynyard Bus Lines on the island in February 2019 as their fomer 68 (B06XQ). The coach was new in 1986 as 508PYU with North Arm Bus Service in Queensland arriving later in Tassie as Redline 8 (DE4352). It then served with Sainty in Launceston, Snug in Oakley, then the other Sainty's Coaches and Reynolds of Cambridge before reaching Wynyard, where it appears to have finally reached the end of its days.

 Parked against the perimeter fence was 13 (EO9254), a Volgren bodied Mercedes OH1418 new to the Australian Army in 1992. Once discharged it arrived in Tasmania with Sherriff of Yolla moving to Fenton Enterprises in Wynyard prior to joining Wynyard Bus Lines.
Picture ref C3008 |
 Behind 13 was Neocar integral 57 (F81UY), new in 2001 to Seymour Passenger Service as 49 (6349AO).

 The small Kia Combi, 19, with NT rego MO3349 is thought to have been transferred from the now closed Grand Touring operation in Darwin.
Picture ref C3015 |
 The buses seen with Kia 19 were a pair of TOST bodied Nissan LKA, doubtless former WA school buses. This is 53 lettered for the Convention Centre Shuttle.
Picture ref C3014 |
 Here is sister 54 which was still lettered for the Shuttle by the front door.

 New to Dysons in 1986 as 79 (DAU269) this PMCSA Apollo bodied Scania K112TR arrived on Tasmania with Hobart Coaches of Moonah as their 74 (DL3412). Later it passed to Wynyard via Fenton Enterprises where it gained rego EF6201. It was 5 with Wynyard and is no longer part of the active fleet.

 This Toyota HiAce Commuter, 64 (DP1401), was new in 1997 - its livery may date from then. Behind is Kia 17.
Picture ref C3007 |
 Arrived from Darwin in full Grand Touring livery is this unidentified BCI Proma.
Picture ref C3004 |
 A couple of days earlier a visit to Seabourne Coaches at Sorrell found 1997 Custom bodied Hino CM277K E49ZS which was to be withdrawn in a couple of years and sold to Wynyard, it had come from Dysons where it had been 343 (3386AO). With it are a BCI Classmaster new in 2008, XT57AC, and E08TH a BCI bodied MAN 18.250 new to Cobden Coaches in 2000 as 2 (PZZ919, later 1702AO).
