They might just be getting a bit of maintenance done or they might not have gone out because let’s be real here, not every bus goes out from a depot even during peak. PS: before you post something on this board think, would my grandma approve of this, would my English teach give me 100% on spelling and could your post perhaps have a negative impact on anything you try to do in your future such as a job interview, would they be proud of what your wrote here. If the answer is NO to any of the above questions than done f**king post. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Besides, it's Christmas vacation, so probably a reduction in service so not as many vehicles required. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJ1400 Posted December 31, 2019 Report Share Posted December 31, 2019 I checked somewhere around STC, I never saw any unknown statue units there: s7274, h7280, s7328, s7340, s7373, s7389, h7409, r7432, r7434, r7438, they're never running around for more than a month or two 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cleowin Posted January 9, 2020 Report Share Posted January 9, 2020 There's only maybe 17 D40LF's left in service with 10 XN40's to go. Are we going to keep a few stragglers around? Maybe we keep a handful until the next bus expansion? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dover5949 Posted January 23, 2020 Report Share Posted January 23, 2020 7112 has been moved from the Orion 5 retirement line. Not sure where else it has been moved to at RTC or to another location? Other scenario could be it has been hauled off for scrap? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If 7112 was disposed of, it's a good thing 7127 was sold to 911 so at least we'll have a surviving 1995 for the foreseeable future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt Dunlop Posted January 31, 2020 Report Share Posted January 31, 2020 Looking at the TCOMM site, it looks like all the D40LF, C40LF, and D60LFs are either not in service or scrapped That means that BC Transit is the only one operating D40LFs in BC (and plenty of them) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least 1 was on a tripper this morning. The C40LFs have been gone for a long time now, and the D60LFs have been gone for a few months. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All the C40lfs and the D60lfs are retired. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
