Express691 Posted July 26, 2020 Author Report Share Posted July 26, 2020 Communications problem between 22nd and New West: there's just a bunch of staff on scene as my train seemed to cruise through just fine.

fp252 Posted August 15, 2020 Report Share Posted August 15, 2020 Hello! First time posting on the forum. An E40LFR (2188, if I remember correctly) was hit by a car attempting to pull out of the curb lane northbound at Renfrew & 1st shortly before 3pm Friday. Caused slight damage to the right side of the bus near the front doors. I took a photo, though I unfortunately wasn't able to get a closer shot.

Due to road block on BC1, 555 sent via Lougheed (idk if Mary Hill would have saved time) to Golden Ears, then to Carvolth via 595 routing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dover5949 Posted November 6, 2020 Report Share Posted November 6, 2020 Due to a container truck roll over on Hwy 91 EB in the "S" curve just after 7pm Hwy 91 is closed at Nelson Rd. Since all EB traffic is gridlock from Knight St all EB 301's & 410's are using Westminster Hwy from Brighouse Stn out to Queensbrough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
