Bookham 1B and Bookham 9 attended an early Wednesday morning call out.
A semi trailer headed Southbound ran off the Hume Highway into the medium strip then back into to south bound lane. Eventually the driver managed to park the truck safely in between the old Hume Highway and the new, near Childowla Rd.
The driver was okay the truck had considerable damage.

Bookham 1A at the Advanced Fire Fighter course on Sunday at Yass Fire Control Centre. The course coordinator deliberately asked for an older tanker to give the students exposure to the many different trucks still used by the RFS. Bookham 1A is the oldest appliance in the Bookham fleet.
The weather was fantastic and all the students seem to enjoy the day.
Thanks to all the instructors who volunteer their time every year.
