I can't think of any off the top of my head … During my time at CT this was how it was explained to me. 1 - 1163 - Low Floor buses 1200 - 1999 - Shuttles 2000 series - LRT 3000 series - non revenue miscellaneous vehicles like trailers, scooters, etc 4000 series - Supervisor vans, PS vans, tow truck 5000 series - MCI 6000 series - articulated buses 7000 series - high floor Flyers 7500 series - low floor Flyers 8100 series - low floor Novas. Of course it changed over time and there were exceptions, the two U2AC were 3001 and 3002 before being renumbered 2101 and 2102. while 8000 and up is now both Nova and New Flyer. 15 minutes ago, PartiallySD said: I vaguely remember some #3000 non revenue LRT equipment (don’t think they start at 3001 anyways.) Edit: after a small bit of digging, apparently #3028 is a scooter at SG… I once rode in 3028, being taken to my bus at the far end of SG. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wouldn't suprise me if you pull an Edmonton and run a green line replacement shuttle (meaning rebranding the 302?) but run this thing on it. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was the original number of U2AC 2101, now Scout. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chills_on_the_train Posted Monday at 08:53 PM Report Share Posted Monday at 08:53 PM Eau Claire's heyday was over in the 90s, should have been demolished 20 years ago. Good to see the land will be put to somewhat better use. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They did a pretty decent job on the WLRT line though. No major issues at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
