I always wondered how the decisions are made to use certain buses, and if drivers have regular buses every day or if it changes. It can be, on weekdays, assuming the vehicle left GASH between 4-730 am and 130-400 pm. Otherwise when the agente de transport is not there to give buses, all buses must come out of Garage 1. The only series in Garage 1 now are 2013, 2018, 2021 (and possibly the odd 2019 and 2020). The agente de transport knows that I like to take out 2nd gens whenever possible but in the end I'll gladly take out any vehicle not equipped with that horrid ISRI seat. GALO dispatching in theory is done via a machine, all options are on the table. No driver is entitled to one particular bus. It is random. If it repeats, it is a coincidence.

GASH = Garage St-Hubert GALO = Garage Longueuil 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
