Sometimes, I wonder why a CT like Mont-Royal can have all kind of *foreign buses* for theirs operations and other CT like Stinson, are always stucked with their own crap.  It is so boring

New Flyers are out of the road indefinitly.  I don't know what is the problem but I think it is relate to the maintenance.

37-004 will probably hit the road in few days.  They are repairing the bus at Stinson.

I'm not really sure, but I think if anything, Stinson has too many buses - 80 artics for 3 artic routes, and 223 regular buses for some mostly infrequent routes. In addition, they now have the Flyers in service but didn't send anything away, so availability shouldn't really be an issue... I suspect they just couldn't care about their fleet, because all other garages have an older fleet compared to Stinson, yet none have such widespread issues across its fleet...

I was waiting for them to remove some of the irrelevant 31-xxx like 31-070-71, 31-094-95, 99, 168... It didn't happen

I’ve been taking many 37s lately and realized that several are not in very good shape already. 37-068 was rattling big time this week. Only 5 years old

Well, some CT have a good reputation at repairing their buses and some don't.  Stinson have not a good reputation and this where all 37-xxx are located.  Maybe, this is part of the answer... or this is just a coincidence.

ex-LE 28-123 was on the 24 this morning... been a while since I saw one of those. I'll miss them...

Got 31-192 (boo) and 30-863 today on the 121 and 171. A hybrid seems to be too much to ask for Stinson it seems like.

I feel your pain, these buses (31-187 to 31-197) are a real nightmare for Stinson.  I hate them a lot too.

41-013 is still at Stinson & now, there's the 41-114, 115 & 116 parked outside Stinson 

Lonely 41-013 parked outside Stinson

If things goes well, some New Flyers (40-9xx) will hit the road with passengers for the first time this Tuesday.  Be aware

Lots of white STM 41-series were parked at Nova Bus today. The highest I saw was 41-115.

There was also 41-013 and an STL hybrid out there with their liveries, and demonstrator 1499 (was STM 33-999).

 

The new livery of 41-xxx is about to come for the CT Legendre this month.

41-026 standing outside the parking of Stinson (they prefer to use the loan of the 31-xxx & the 32-xxx instead of that)

23-218 parked outside with the New Flyers (CT Stinson) 

41-066 to 41-070 parked outside stinson (068 missing)

41-047, 48, 50 & 66 are parked outside Stinson

Spotted 38-066 on the 171 this evening. Quite rare to see anything that's not a 31 or 37 on Stinson runs these days!

I took 29-840 on the 121 this evening.

Yeah!!!  The 31-xxx are annoying.  I hate them!!

41-050... fresh from Nova this morning.... park inside Stinson.

A lot of New Flyers parked outiside Stinson and a few 41-xxx (up to 41-049)

Seem like there is a lot of 26-xxx that come around & go for 24h or less in CT Stinson

41-041 & 41-042 parked  outside CT Stinson

37-085 was at Stinson.  I guess the remaining of the 37-xxx in Mont-Royal will go back to Stinson in a few days... (what else is new) 

Now, 41-014  is in the parking of Stinson with the 41-019.  Wonder why they expose these new buses at a place where they will not be use.

41-019 is well hide in the parking of Stinson

I seriously hope they don't go with that kind of display as well. It's just a waste of power lighting up most of the lights like that.

38-069 was on the 164 with the headlights piece in white on the left.

Saint-Laurent's 28-123 was on the 135.

LaSalle's 29-133 was on the 196 Stinson extra.

Frontenac's 38-002 was on the 213.

All the New Flyers have this kind of display too for the En transit.  I think we will have to get use to it.

I saw the 41-023  all dress in white on Bdv. Saint-Martin around the 19 highway.

This page will be all about the series, sightings and discussion of all the 41-xxx! 

Just a few weeks ago 41-002 was spotted in ST-Eustache and today someone from the Facebook group “Transit in Quebec” did spot 41-021 in Laval! It’s a great idea to start a discussion now. Feel free to post your sightings here 

Legendre is probably the best candidate to receive them!!
