The cutaways were retired back in 2018 I believe.

This could be interesting. I suspect it will be a peak hour only bus, like Ft. Sask or Beaumont though. But if we get weekdays and weekend days too, that'd be awesome!

Leduc is part of the EMTSC, it's Sherwood Park and Morinville not part of the plan, and Morinville pulled out due to funding issues thanks to Covid

Wishful thinking at this point, but maybe the trolley network will comeback?

Probably because they don't know how the detours for Valley West construction are gonna look

Those are probably the exact same seats found in 7000-7109, and if they aren't, they're damn close!

Holy crap! How does something like that happen?! I'm guessing a collision at the very least

ETS might be reallocating buses again. 2 routes in that block are crosstowns

They run all day on both lines. I'd try to get pictures at any of the surface LRT stations though

Spotted 4517 with drivers a/c

510X Martin. But yes, everything Martin has said is true. There is no way to trial such a massive overhaul to Edmonton Transit. It has to be all or nothing.

This. We get winter every year, adjust your leave times

That's a shame. Marked for retirement soon I'm guessing?

Good lord. I really hope ETS is paying attention to your S200s before we buy more HFLRVs as this might push them to other manufacturers

I'd imagine ETS not even bothering and retiring the bus. I'd imagine the rest of the 4200s and early 4300s up for retirement next year anyway

oh ffs. No bloody wonder why my regulars are getting so pissed off with the constant concrete work near Avonmore. TransEd needs to just contract this crap out and be done with it

A strong chance the last 8 get here before year's end at this point.

That's awesome!

I caught this D40LF earlier on Argyll Rd. I'm just wondering where it came from?

Indeed. The wrap looks sharp!

This block was all over the T55 map today, showing up as the 74, 15, and 8. Admittedly, seeing the block on the 15 and 8 made scout Connors Rd for the better part of an hour, though it's more likely that it stayed mostly south of the Whitemud

That's what I was thinking! I caught it on the 8 yesterday while I was heading to work

That's gotta be a weird sight for Winnipeggers. Were the XD60s also tested out there?

Talked with some of the TransEd guys while I was at work tonight. They said if the summer is really good this year, we could see a mid 2021 opening of the Valley Line

The white livery bus kinda look like a Fishbowl, just a bit
