Did you catch it's fleet number by chance? I will tell you when the Novabus LFS HEVs come into service. I will be told by Translink. Also, how do you get pics of the Novas at the Prevost Service Centre? Is there a good spot to take a pic? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't been there personally but hopefully I'll go there soon when I have the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got a shot by pulling into this other lot next to it (I drove but I think the 405 can also get you there; you'll just need to walk a bit) and shooting through the wire fence. The lot in question is south of the service center. You can get pretty close to the buses in that lot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

8010 Posted September 4, 2018 Report Share Posted September 4, 2018 I thought some of the new Novas would've gone to HTC by now like the XN40s did before they entered service... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Word is that there is a delay with delivery inspection so the entry into service will take a little longer. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unloading Only Posted September 6, 2018 Report Share Posted September 6, 2018 Are all of the buses in these orders supposed to have a driver barrier pre-installed? I imagine this has been mentioned already but I couldn't find it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
