BCT-3122-D800-10240 Posted January 29, 2007 Author Report Share Posted January 29, 2007 How many of the 2 tone blue fishbowls are left? Well, if you go to my website at this direct link, you will find an allocation list which also shows the Liveries on the Fishbowls: http://www.busdrawings.com/Transit/alberta...ry/fishbowl.htm . I believe I may only be out by 2 or 3 units for the accuracy of this list. Enjoy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Old Look Posted February 1, 2007 Report Share Posted February 1, 2007 Here are a few captured earlier this week on January 22, 2007. Enjoy! Boy, those fishbowls still look great, considering how old they are! Thanks for sharing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevlo86 Posted February 1, 2007 Report Share Posted February 1, 2007 Boy, those fishbowls still look great, considering how old they are! Thanks for sharing. Many have had bodywork done to them in recent years, so whereever they have had body work, they usually have had some frsh paint. This is most common on the front ends of quite a few of these buses.

Very nice! Have you seen the drawing that I did of #1018? They retired the last of the 3 Ex-St. Albert Fishbowls just before I got hired on to Calgary Transit. I sure wish I could've driven one!
