Kamloops 1 Posted September 7, 2016 Report Share Posted September 7, 2016 Looking at the cptdb.wiki and becoming a member here I thought I could make the changes thier. I guess I have to do it here and someone else makes those changes. Anyway from what I have seen on the wiki site buses 9206,9207,9208 and 9210 have returned to Kamloops from being loaned to Chilliwack last month. Also bus 1054 has no photo beside it's info so attached is a photo of 1054. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you for posting it. ^^ 9088 arrived in the yard yesterday afternoon. 9705 got into a bad accident a couple weeks ago and I'm betting that it'll be retired. I suppose this 'lovely' Dart is here to replace it. 9705 continue in service till it was shipped out in 2015 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I posted a photo of 1054 last year to the main Kamloops fleet page, but I don't like using the same photo twice - so as to give other members a chance to post their pictures of the same vehicle to the fleet roster page. That's a good shot, also perfect in that you've caught the opposite side of the bus from the photo I took: https://cptdb.ca/wiki/index.php/File:BC_Transit_1054-a.jpg If you want to be a wiki editor, refer to the wiki page and ask there: https://cptdb.ca/topic/2896-wiki-editors/?page=23 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Returned to service this month after a summer off, and my impression is it is a bit of a heap. Has a lot of odd bumps and rattles like the worst of the the 8040s. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blue Bus Fan Posted May 4, 2017 Report Share Posted May 4, 2017 @GeneralDirection, has 8084 been retired? Have 9864-9870, 9875, 9877 been transferred? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeneralDirection Posted May 5, 2017 Report Share Posted May 5, 2017 I can confirm that 9864 and 9867 are no longer on the property. The rest of the 98XX series are awaiting relocation. We haven't been running any diesel conventional buses since last week. At this time, there's no official word on what the fate of 8084 is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeneralDirection Posted June 8, 2017 Report Share Posted June 8, 2017 Later today, all remaining conventional diesel buses (9868, 9870, 9877) will be transferred to other locations. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
