Community Shuttle Posted April 9, 2021 Report Share Posted April 9, 2021 Editors: I would refrain from adding any info on the current ownership of 9753 until the TMS makes an official announcement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Community Shuttle Posted April 12, 2021 Report Share Posted April 12, 2021 The TMS officially announced and confirmed on Facebook its acquisition of 9753. It will remain as-is (i.e. in the current BCT livery sans BC Transit branding) for the foreseeable future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Express691 Posted April 12, 2021 Report Share Posted April 12, 2021 The post advises against anyone heading heading to the shop to see the new acquisition until COVID slowed down reasonably. No, staying behind the fence does not qualify Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, staying behind the fence does not qualify It's probably inside the shop now, seeing as 101 is gone and 3334 is back in storage at the remote site.

ThatBusGuy Posted April 16, 2021 Report Share Posted April 16, 2021 Earlier today (don't remember the exact time, I think late morning or early afternoon) I saw a D40LF on Lougheed Hwy between Beta and Delta - too far along for it to be a 25 turning around. Didn't get the number, so I wonder if it was the same one. Figured it was just doing training or something, unless HTC suddenly has a D40LF to put on the 136...

That indicates whether it is training or revenue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Community Shuttle Posted April 27, 2021 Report Share Posted April 27, 2021 Turns out 9753 was a donation to the TMS. Seems like BC Transit were feeling generous this year since 9001 is next to be donated for preservation after its retirement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So it’s something that’s probably going to happen within the next few weeks judging by the title and the Phase 3 reopening in BC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Millennium2002 Posted November 27, 2021 Report Share Posted November 27, 2021 No... where I am it's usually too late to hop out of my chair and run to the front of the house to see what's passing by. I heard there was a S50 D40LF out for training duties though... I guess I just want to ride one again... like the one from the Transit Museum society.

Guessing it wasn't an Orion... also, I'm not sure if Southridge Building Supplies still have a Freightliner FL106 truck. Those were also fitted with S50s and theirs used to run out of their former yard in Steveston (now a residential/retail building). I used to take the bus out of Steveston back then and hearing the truck would always trip me up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
