Ah, yes, looks to be from a ttcbeat eBay auction where he puts is watermark across the image with the intention of dissuading others from reusing the image.

And 2102 scraped and left for dead I rode both cars in Edmonton when they were there in summer 1989. ETS operators didn't much care for them. Their dashboards were laid out to Calgary spec rather than Edmonton. For example, the battery and pantograph buttons, which are in the lower left corner of a Calgary dashboard, are in the upper left corner in Edmonton. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

M. Parsons Posted June 15, 2020 Report Share Posted June 15, 2020 I rediscovered some slides in my collection recently. I'm not 100% certain if they are originals or duplicates, but, they are colour streetcar slides so I'm not complaining! Dates on all of the streetcar slides is September 1947. Below are 4 scans from this set. #14 with a trailer. I suspect this was at the barns. #27 at the barns. #58 somewhere in Calgary. Note that trolleybuses and streetcars are sharing positive wire. #426 at the 4 St NW/ Blackthorn loop in 1969. 6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TimmyC62 Posted March 13, 2021 Report Share Posted March 13, 2021 Oh man, I've played that field before. Would've been awesome to have had 1089 there back then. Did you arrange to be on the field for photos, or just snuck a few while between games? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1604 Posted March 24, 2021 Report Share Posted March 24, 2021 @BCT-3122-D800-10240 identified the bus in this movie trailer (just a heads up: violent scene and there's a loud four letter word uttered) as ex-Brandon #65, which was originally CT #7528. Thought it looked familiar... Slightly longer version and a behind-the-scenes video with an exterior shot of a different (ex-Lethbridge Transit) D40LF. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
