School Bus 101 Posted September 29, 2022 Report Share Posted September 29, 2022 Spotted what looked to be a very new 48 or 54-passenger gasoline-powered Bluebird Vision. Did not catch a fleet number, but it has tall tinted black framed windows, a rear spoiler and LED lighting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JK-from-YYC Posted September 29, 2022 Report Share Posted September 29, 2022 I spotted something that matches that description on my way home today, I was wondering if it was new since the paint was still shiny. It went by on Country Village Road heading away from North Pointe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BCT-3122-D800-10240 Posted September 29, 2022 Author Report Share Posted September 29, 2022 It appears Willco has picked up a few more used buses. Spotted #433 yesterday afternoon, a Blue Bird Vision 12 row unit. I did not get a good look at this one so I am not sure what the age is on this one. Before that, the highest 400 series I had seen was #429, also a Blue Bird Vision. Keep your eyes out for #'s 430-432 as they must be around now too! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a 54-passenger body and is numbered 313. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have now seen 430 as well as 434 which looks roughly the same age and specs as 430. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
