  1. The front destination sign needs fixing though... Bus must be in decent shape? Why was it repainted near retirement?
  2. Yes, you are correct. I was referring to the Novas. Very short? <5 inches?
  3. The New Flyer barriers are different from the Nova Bus ones, right?
  4. Sometimes, drivers rest their right hand on the farebox... (then the barrier came)
  5. I prefer having the windows open when the A/C isn't turned on. Too bad most windows aren't open-able on the 2014-present built buses...
  6. May I please be a CPTDB Wiki Editor? I always proofread and have excellent grammar. Always online everyday.
  7. Yes! Finally getting repaired. Wait, they got new replacement pieces? From where? How do you tell if a NovaBUS has been rebuilt?
  8. The doors are automatic, no pull cord stop requests, and articulated buses are better at unloading large numbers of passengers at one time.
  9. I dislike having double-deckers being implemented into the TransLink fleet.
  10. Spotted a 2016 XD40 heading NB to Metrotown. Didn't see fleet number, sorry!
  11. Please don't add "the" to fleet numbers. Ex. First 2000 D40LF with 'H' 7397 NOT First 2000 D40LF with 'H' the 7397 Thanks.
  12. Question: Why was 1995 D40LF 7103 retired in 2015? It was rebuilt again in 2011... I thought refurbished buses last like around 8-10 years.
  13. Why did Richmond send the D40LF's to HTC? I thought Richmond had very flat roads which are good for aging buses.
  14. Oops, I don't know which words to describe the ride. Sorry.
  15. Would be dangerous if the brakes failed and the bus rolls down the hill! 3295 was braking poorly anyway also it made lots of screeching noises every time it stopped...
  16. 3295 was rolling backwards a few centimetres when it departed the stop on 430. Scary!
  17. I just rode 7202, and the part was replaced. Looked new. Some windows were replaced. Finally! D40LF's and 3295 on 430 again.
