Don't know where they were heading. Possibly the scrapyard? If not then I'm not sure where. They were both auctioned off on GovDeals back in October. The winning bidder for both listings is under the same account. 971: https://www.govdeals.ca/index.cfm?fa=Main.Item&itemid=71&acctid=6958 974: https://www.govdeals.ca/index.cfm?fa=Main.Item&itemid=72&acctid=6958 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I highly doubt that by its given condition from the photos on GovDeals. They were pretty stripped and trashed... Someone take a train ride and see if it's in the yard...

BlueBirdVision Posted March 5, 2018 Report Share Posted March 5, 2018 Greater Sudbury Transit purchased 3 new NovaBus LFS unit's back in fall of 2017. These buses are numbered 871-873. New features on these buses is the Cummins L9 & Allison B400R. Basically that's all what is new for Sudbury at the time. No 30ft buses have been seen yet. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for the update. It's interesting that Sudbury went back to Allison, shortly after they became a 100% Voith fleet. Have there been any retirements from the new Novas, or are these planned to increase the spare ratio/service improvements? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
