97SCT

Thread bump. Another Eldorado EZ-Rider II has arrived, likely another ex-YRT unit. Currently un-numbered but is likely 3210. 1940 is no longer in Fort Erie and has been sent back.

I have not known about those, I'll keep an eye out.

The new Novas are numbered 1173-74. They got the extra rear ventilation and American Seating Insight Prime+ seats.

7097 has been sent to Ontario I would assume for warranty work. In the meantime an EZ-Rider II MAX showed up and has been identified as former Mississauga 0892. Not sure if it is another secondhand purchase. (local source)

Today's summary: Both new 2019 Novas 7112 and 13 were both assigned to the 1 Glace Bay. The 14 CBU Express now has 3 runs compared to using only one bus when I was last up a year ago. 7088, 7093 and 7109 were the buses used, 7102 later took over for 7109. Only 2 small buses out; Vicinity units 7094 and 7096. 7104 is waiting for a new motor, 7100 is out of service for repairs after being involved in a fatal accident.

7114 is confirmed to be ex-Red Deer 781 which also sports a new livery. 7113 was given the same special "Ride The Bus" wrap as 7110, except the windows are not covered. Not sure if 7112 got it as well. (Local source)

7114 arrived not too long ago and is another former Red Deer D40LFR. Could be ex-781 but waiting for confirmation.

Likely for the GO Train shuttle route that goes directly from Niagara Falls to NOTL.

Same with 0251.....

Just curious, how many of the 2000 Novas are left active now?

Yarmouth now has a new bus; a Ford E450/Champion LF Transport. The Arboc is now likely retired. https://www.thevanguard.ca/community/yarmouths-transit-service-seeing-upward-trend-in-passenger-numbers-273472/

732 has been confirmed to be Transit Cape Breton 7111.

7108 is a handi-trans unit, and there's still no 7105 as of yet. Taking their time with ex-St. Catharines 0703 and the secondhands from DRT I would assume. The new units are indeed 2019's. Got the VIN's as well.

Transit Cape Breton's two new Novas have arrived, however numbered 7100-7101......they will likely be re-numbered to 7112-7113.
