ThomasW97 Posted June 3, 2018 Report Share Posted June 3, 2018 A bit of sad news to end off the night, 7351 was sent to join the others in bus heaven earlier this afternoon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DJ1400 Posted June 7, 2018 Report Share Posted June 7, 2018 I think S7321, S7357, S7389, and S7396 are retired because there are no running schedules from T-comm search, I didn't see any of them these days Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't just base it on when they were last seen. Classic example would be when 9205 was out of service for almost an entire year a while back.

MCW Metrobus Posted June 13, 2018 Report Share Posted June 13, 2018 I saw what I thought was N7254 heading north on Highway 99 near Steveston Highway at about 12:30 this afternoon. Given what we've seen over the past couple of days, I think there's a real possibility that this bus was heading for VTC to be placed into service. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dover5949 Posted June 13, 2018 Report Share Posted June 13, 2018 S7262 was towed into STC on Saturday June 2 by a Unitow towtruck just after 1230pm & dropped off at the East fence. Since then it has not been in service & not sure if it is retired or out due to mechanical? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we aren't posting  Retirements, Likely or confirmed. Or reactivatio.. it is considered topic derailment. . Now... fresh page... let's keep our discussion relevant to actual retirmeents.

I was just wondering why MCW Metrobus wouldn't want it bought by TRAMS? it's a historic bus at this point given its long service life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BC Transit still has one (or two?) ex-VanRTS/CMBC 1995s (as in actual 1995s, not 1996-built 1995 models) in service. Those are outliving 7115.
