Found an Instagram photo of 793 surrounded by gen4 Novas including what appears to be 22001 and 22026, so it looks like 793 is/was still around as of at least 2020. Does anybody know if there are plans for this unit’s restoration or is it still more-or-less in storage?

On Wednesday morning from 7 AM to 9 AM CT will have a “puppy bus” at Anderson Station with dogs from the Alberta Animal Rescue Crew Society. https://calgary.ctvnews.ca/commuters-can-visit-a-puppy-bus-at-anderson-ctrain-station-wednesday-1.5906942

Usually either the very back or by the rear door.

Saw 6068 with a bike rack

6002 has the red seats

Whole bunch of bus shelters have had their windows smashed between Centre Street/68 Ave and Coventry Hills. Not sure what kind of pathetic person gets a kick out of wasting the city’s time and money on that cleanup.

Been a little while since I posted in this thread but here's what I can see from Transit55: No longer missing: 7706, 7747, 7764 (as DB mentioned) 7770, 7779, 7786 Currently missing: 7714 - 03/17/22 7718 - 10/06/21 7726 - 01/29/22 7733 - 02/18/22 7741 - 03/25/22 7773 - 02/10/22 7774 - 03/18/22 7785 - 12/08/21 7789 - 12/10/21

Saw 8200 being towed up Centre Street this morning with no paint/decals on the front, no windshield and no headlights.

More photos of chaos at Centre street near the trap: from what I saw, some bonehead driver got stuck in the trap, 6071 (744) almost slid into a car, 6089 (301) slid into the curb beside the gate and blocked the whole road, then half the fleet piled up behind this circus. THEN 6069 (301) got stuck on SB harvest hills blvd on the other side of the trap and made even more havoc.

6064 got stuck/jackknifed and was abandoned at the 2300 block of Centre Street N on the NB side. Struggling with this late snowfall I guess

The 301 is near where I live and it’s full pretty much every time I see it, and especially during peak it’s stuffed. I think some of the higher-traffic routes at least need some of the extras they lost to spring signup back soon, although CT has a lot to deal with right now (Safety on the Ctrain, VP bus shortage etc) so I’m not sure when they would make those changes.

The AC from the Phoenix end could have been removed by Big Rig or just disconnected.

I did see, they were American Seating Vision.
