  1. I think its one of the demo units. I have seen it on Main Street in the past. 994-997 are all in service this morning.
  2. Sorry I got the 54-57, 59 routes wrong. They probably won't use that new transit terminal
  3. The 3, 11, 54-57, 59 could also use that terminal
  4. If Translink extended service to Mission and Abbotsford, they might need to permission from VIA as VIA runs through there westbound only in the morning rush hour.
  5. Pretty sure its 761. A few years ago 777 had a fatal accident in Garden City.
  6. The white and orange paint scheme looks better than the White and Black scheme.
  7. 994's paint scheme looks different than 995-997, Is that due to its demonstration on other systems? They should also use them on weekends.
  8. Is the Brandon Garage designed to serve as a LRT depot if and when the Transitway is converted?
  9. I meant highway 59. Sorry if I didn't make that clear. The current route 85 shares its route with the 41 on Headmaster and Rothesay. This proposal would see it provide non-express service to Headmaster and Devries (the current endpoint of the 41 North Kildonan). The 40 runs down Ragsdill (a few streets over). The decision was made to study if the 85 could be extended.
  10. My understanding is that none of the rebuilt Skylines are going. 8512 is one of the none refurbished Skylines and was the Economy Activity car on the train I was on in May. 8500, 8507, 8509 and 8517 are refurbished.
  11. There is another route expansion proposal up for a vote. Route 85 could be expanded to service Headmaster and Devries. My guess is that service would be extended across 59 to a new loop once that loop and road are complete.
  12. Which domes are going? It was unclear from the Facebook group
  13. The domes are going to the states for the winter according to the Canadian Passenger Train Enthusiasts group on Facebook.
  14. I have been told that the reason that you can't track the Canadian with Reservia is due to lateness of the train
  15. Anyone know why tsimobile.viarail.ca is down? (its the mobile VIA tracker)
  16. Yet the Canadian has up-to-date schedule info at tsimobile.viarail.ca
  17. The western Canadian VIA trains are not shown between stations.
  18. Winnipeg Transit has been using 4 XE40's for a while without them dying in traffic so that type of bus would work in Vancouver.
  19. I spotted 365 on Thursday on a 36.
  20. Via is salvaging them for parts for the Renaissance fleet
  21. 994-996 are in service this morning
  22. The funny thing about train one departing late from Toronto is that it arrives ontime or early into Winnipeg.
