No that’s not a mistake reason why they are using 14 bishop grandin is because there isn’t a stop on the 14 called Dunkirk so people can get confused -
Winnipeg Transit page update
Thewinnipegtransitfanhuang replied to bus is coming 1965's topic in UPDATES & ADDITIONS
I’m not too sure why 9914 is moved from active training buses to retired training buses, I’ve seen it used numerous times recently and it should be changed back to active training buses -
In general 9xxx buses are non revenue buses, that D30lf is ex 914 and is often used as the surveillance camera outside FRG, the rest are 1999 D40lfs currently used as training buses. You can find information about them on the wiki

A factor to why they took a long time to go back to regular from reduced last time is the lack of drivers due to large scale layoffs, if we were going back to reduced I’d expect them to be more aligned with the province’s measures since there’s already a plan in place for different scenarios, not like see as we go type of deal. Also with school winter breaks potentially being extended into January it’s likely that ridership will drop significantly for that period of time which is also a signal transit may need to go to reduced service for that period of time. Schools are a big part of ri -
