Stormscape Posted November 16, 2016 Report Share Posted November 16, 2016 So I saw the weirdest block on T-comm a few days ago, but I forgot to save the link to it. It was for a VTC diesel tripper in the morning: a 9 to Oak from Boundary, then NIS to UBC to do a single roundtrip of the 33 to 29th and back to UBC, and then that was it for the bus for the day. There was 45 minutes alloted for the bus to get from Broadway and Oak to UBC while NIS. Surely they could have just run it to UBC? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was on 9668 according to http://tcomm.bustrainferry.com/retirement_export.txt Its an afternoon version though - Dont know if there is a morning version of this because that site only saves the bus' most recent block. The trip starts at Renfrew by the way. It also does not appear on the print schedule, so my guess is that it has to be a school tripper for Van Tech (since that is the closest in proximity). Besides, there is a 9 to UBC that should be 2 minutes in front by the time that tripper arrives at Broadway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Express691 Posted November 16, 2016 Report Share Posted November 16, 2016 I was just given the URL. Been using it ever since. No link from the site onto the ret. export as far as I know. It refreshes every night at 11pm. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Back in the day, PM trippers would see strange things like Orion Vs on the #98. That said, CMBC needs more artics yesterday if not sooner, for multiple reasons.

Just as an aside, I spent many years driving the 98 and an Orion was worse than no bus on the 98, single door and very narrow aisle. On the occasional time that I got one on a bus change I refused it and got a low floor that they scavenged from another route and replaced with the Orion.
