Bus 4701 was in the ditch this morning at 7:00 AM on the transitway between the Nepean Sportsplex and Fallowfield station. The road was closed and the two OC Transpo Heavy Wreckers were there pulling it out.

Ex-Delaney Bus Lines bus # 901 bus: 1997 Prevost 6x2 54-Seat Passenger Coach in Thompson, Manitoba, Canada (IronPlanet Item #9654288)

The following 2012 Enviro 500 units are for sale on the GovDeals website: 8023, 8024, 8027, 8030, 8036, 8041, 8051, 8059, 8061, 8062, 8063, 8069, 8070, 8074

GO Transit removes all logos and corporate decals when they retire a bus? Because this one still had them all.

Strangely enough I just saw GO Transit # 2549 heading eastbound on Highway 17 in Petawawa signed up Out of Service.

8041 also wrapped for Paramount +

8019 is wrapped for Paramount+ streaming service. It also broke down on Baseline at Clyde this afternoon.

The all white coach I saw on the 5th was "Spring". The one I saw yesterday that was fully decaled looked to have a 4 digit fleet number, but I didn't stop to look more closely.

Seems like Ontario Northland has received an order of Prevost H3-45 coaches. Spotted one fully decalled at the Sudbury garage today.

Spotted an all white newer H3-45 coach running for Ontario Northland leaving Sudbury today. Has Ontario Northland temporary stickers on the front and under driver window.

8070 wrapped on driver’s side for Canadian Tire

Don’t think it was mentioned here but Roxborough Bus Lines completed the purchase of 417 Bus Line earlier this year.

Thanks for the quote.

Please provide your source for this. I can't find anything that says they will be there past Sunday.

Found a very good review of this new "The Jet" service:

If the information in this thread will alert me to an upcoming detour, help me get to my destination, or inform me of what new vehicles have been delivered, then sure it can stay here.

This thread should be moved to the Non-Transit Discussion forum.

This isn’t a PR move. What other railway company in BC had readily available passenger cars? It’s about reuniting families and nothing more. The provincial state of emergency makes federal funds available for this.

Sorry I don't claim to know anything about the history of MTA buses, however this YouTube video shows both # 2926 and # 7426 on the interior. You mentioned ex # 7424.

I stand corrected. The Auction site said they are 2014 models.

The buses Councillor McKenney is proposing to purchase in this story are listed here: https://www.publicsurplus.com/sms/metrostlouis,mo/auction/view?auc=2905276 CTV news incorrectly said they were nearly two decades old (Well I suppose if you count the two Gillig buses then they are) CityNews also incorrectly said they were former OC Transpo buses. At least the photos on the auction don’t look like the 2001 models we used to have.

Reviving an old thread but I just got a good look at bus # 1901 today. Oddly it has a rear destination sign (which was not in use).

Some ex-Cornwall Eldorado buses are for sale on Facebook Marketplace.

Spotted former Greater Sudbury Transit buses 761, 762, and 763 on flatbed trucks heading eastbound on Highway 17 at Deep River. There's a few scrapyards closer to town so I'm thinking these are going to have a second life or be used for parts.

Sorry I don't agree. It's checking ID and that's it. "Oh it's SUCH a hastle to take the train because I have to take 5 seconds out of my time to show my ID...." If you want to think of something shameful then you should worry about them not putting everyone's bags through a metal detector. You also can't compare verifying identification with wanting to improve service in an area. If VIA restores or improves service to areas that previously had cutbacks, then people will take it regardless of whether they have to show ID or not.
