Brando737 Posted April 27, 2016 Report Share Posted April 27, 2016 S15001 was out today, but is on the bo track after only a few hours of its first shift. All of Surrey's XDE60'S are now at STC and have seen service. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty sure 15006 didnt see service yesterday; it only started today. 15016 also started service today. As of today, all 2015 XDE60 are in service.

Brando737 Posted April 29, 2016 Report Share Posted April 29, 2016 All artics on the 96 are XDE60'S today, 15001 to 15006. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stormscape Posted May 3, 2016 Report Share Posted May 3, 2016 Saw 15003 (pretty sure it was 15003 at least) at Bridgeport on Monday signed up as "4 Phibbs Exchange". Only spotted it from the train so I couldn't get a picture. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds like one of the Richmond Artics, and one of the drivers that tend to play around with the destination signs on occasion from what I hear. 12003 perhaps?

Definitely Richmond, it was numbered in the 12000s and had the light grey paint instead of the charcoal colour. I got a picture but I was in a hurry so it didn't turn out well...

Stormscape Posted May 4, 2016 Report Share Posted May 4, 2016 Yeah, 12003 is more likely, only saw it when I glanced down from the train so I only saw the 003 part of the bus number. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's funny how I'm looking at tcomm and there's only a single 40 ft bus on the 96 while everything else is an XDE60! Rode it in both directions today. Looks like they're really ramping up the high quality service here with the summer coming Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nobody 'knows' because they haven't even been built yet, silly. One can 'speculate' where they'll head (Most likely Burnaby to replace the worst 1998-2000 D60LFs there, and perhaps a handful to Port Coquitlam).

8800GTX Posted September 21, 2016 Report Share Posted September 21, 2016 There seem to have been some changes in the positioning of the XDE's, I was riding B15012 on the 96 B-Line today so I guess that one's sticking around in Surrey. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't know why that one was sent over, to be honest - but it looks like it took until late August for Surrey to finally get its share of 12 from the initial order. As far as positioning, its currently 12-6-3 Surrey-Burnaby-Vancouver. Long story short, Surrey gave a bulk of its fleet to Hamilton which I guess freed up space for another artic to come in. Also, the 49 moved back to Vancouver Transit Centre for operations - which required 25 of Richmond's units to be moved there as well as 3 of Burnaby's. That's the current situation for this batch of 21 - Big things in store for the next 26, expected to arrive late this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is nice to see that HTC is get XDE60 that fast within a year of opening. I wonder routes will the XDE60 will operate on from HTC? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
