The "B" and "St. Patrick" date this photo to between November 1954 and January 1959, and since the photo appears to have been taken on a nice summer day, it would realistically have been between 1955 and 1958. Before 1954, the "H" streetcar served the St. Patrick line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Photo by @Jan Boic If I'm not mistaken tom, X18 trips went via Tremblay instead of Coventry. Based off these maps I'd think I'm right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This bus is now owned by a Private Company This is not accurate. 8776 belongs to a private individual. Not quite the same thing as a company. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SMS Posted November 2, 2019 Report Share Posted November 2, 2019 According to La Presse, OC Transpo 9301 was the first bus built at the St Eustache plant by Nova once MCI stopped producing the Classic.

I recall 12-001 to 12-101 being built by MCI except for that one-off bus. Our 1993 NovaBus Classics were also the first batch to be completed by Nova.

OC Transpo/STO Fan Posted December 3, 2019 Report Share Posted December 3, 2019 Here's an interesting photo by Bob Hussey. 9011 is at Mackenzie King Bridge doing a route 85 Bayshore sometime between August and November 2000. An interesting fact about this bus is that it was just freshly repainted into the new maple leaf livery at the time of this photo (was repainted by August 2000 and was the first D40 repainted), even before any of the 90xx D40s got Luminator signs. According to @Michel, this was actually one of the first 90xx D40s to get the new signs in November 2000. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MCIBUS Posted December 4, 2019 Report Share Posted December 4, 2019 The one thing about the 90XX D40's & the 92XX D40's where the window frames On the 92XX D40's where all black and had 2 flip down windows at the top, while the 90XX D40's where silver and had both a 1 & 2 Flip down windows as you can see in this pic. I'm not sure of why the change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
