    Buses for sale

    If that's the case No Thanks,.
  2. For me I have no choice. If still want to see my mother who's in a Long Term Nursing Home.
  3. At this transit meeting are they finally going to pick which Eletric bus order there going with? Nova? or NFI? The TTC has already split there order between the two. What's taking OC so long to decide which model there going with?

    Buses for sale

    Depending on the condition, not bad for $8,000. Nice for conversion into a RV?
  5. Thanks @GTAmissions1 For the explation on the GO Train/Bus system transfers.
  6. Is there any possibility, that GO Bus Network would go to a Bus transfer to Train? I don't live in the GTA so don't know how GO is done, but what would the possibility of that happening on all routes, except the QEW Express Route 16(I think) Toronto<>Hamilton Express/Hamilton<>Toronto Express?
  7. Not to mention that the additional cost of making Industrial Garage Double Decker friendly.
  8. For the south extension, even though they say a "possible" November hand over, in all honest I see a hand over either in late winter 2024 or early Spring 2024. Grant you t all depends on the Ottawa Hydro strike if they settle in the next month or so, if not In any case I don't see passengers riding Line 2 sometime after 2024.
  9. Or the first town just after the boarder. This way they can say they actually severed location in California with real people in it, rather then some Campground? You know, I see 2024 being worst for Greyhound and perhaps FLIX with more of their crazy schemes and even more station closers and more ridicule's curb side pick ups/drop offs.
  10. Here's today's Light Rail Sub-Commitee Meeting
  11. I wonder if there going to have past models like Dian Parkinson, Holly Hostrum, and many others pay tribute to Bob Baker.
  12. Hey several years ago(20+ years)OC Transpo had leased some Santa Monica GM New Looks, which where later bought, they had different interiors, they also leased some Montreal buses(not sure which system from the Montreal area), they to had different interiors, we bought years ago some 1960 GM New Looks from the TTC as well as some ex-TTC Orion-Ikarus had different interiors. Yeah they may be different, but a bus is a bus and as long as it can do the job at present, it's like having a "New Bus" order with 'new' features. Sure things may look different but at least you guys are from the GTA and in most cases have road TTC buses before so it may not be that "unusual" .
  13. Call me comsprist but I think he was murder, just my opion.
  14. I can't say for sure, don''t know DRT system, but it's possible they might just leave the TTC tracking system in place and just not track those 10 buses. Now grant you I'm not sure if the "Next Stop" announcement system works indecently from the tracking system or not.
  15. Maybe they should of thought about that when they allowed kids 12 and under free transit as well as sharing your Prestro Card?
  16. Thanks for the info. Wasn't sure if was possible or not.
  17. Question? Are the forest fires in BC effecting any VIA services?
  18. What's the possibility of leasing buses from a Bus whole saller like ABC from the US? I'm not of the requirements regarding Transport Canada rules on buses in Canada though?
  19. Who owns Safeway Tours?
  20. You know I wonder if Flix/Greyhound is doing this on purpose/ Picking stops they know will cause issue forceing them to keep changing locations, just to drop the destination. They can easily say
  21. Question? Why then can't Flixbus run Ottawa-Montreal since Greyhound owned that route? It's run by Orleans Express & another company I forget the name of it right now?
  22. I'll bet Greyhound will simply pull out that station and move somewhere else or complete stop going to Columbus.
  23. I found a easier way at least in the morning getting to Parliament Station avoiding R1. The time I start(5:30 AM), I now take my first bus to Billings transfer to Route 6 getting there around 5 AM(Parliament) as before taking my first bus to Billings transfer to Route 88, then Hurdman R1 and getting off at Bank/Albert 5:35/40 AM and then having to walk another 15 mins o work always being late. When the ttrain was running I would get at Parliament around 5:10 AM.
  24. Thanks for the replies. Interesting about the luggage compartments? didn't think they where used that high in that % ?
  25. Not being from the GTA or living there, are the GO Coaches(Highway)are the luggage compartments under the coach really used that often? Maybe the Toronto-Hamilton Express might(this is only speculation on my part)if not the then the D45 CRT LE would be good for a commuter coach.
