On-Demand service has become popular very quickly in many cities across Canada. Guelph Transit so far is the most recent to begin service as of May 2nd. The service uses Nova LFS buses in the South end for the Industrial Service and Arboc buses in the North End.

Hi, all good everyone, oh wait wait a few minutes! Finally, I found my old picture from my iPhone 6. I had to stop in the DC Area. Did you know about the old bus Orion V coach (2157)? If you catch the picture and I was surprised wow!! I had saved files or folders on my USB of the pictures used on my computer. Last on April 4 or 5, 2016.

On a very hot humid day in Maryland, here is an assortment of retired WMATA Orion Vs off to the side from WMATA's Landover Division. Three are 2000 Models and one is a 1997 one. They have been stripped of fluids and parts and are now awaiting to be scrapped. There used to be 8 of them here when my friends went but one seemed to have been towed away possibly for scrap. Managed to get a whole load of old bus schedules and a few advertisements from these buses. No I didn't get a seat but I wanted to since 4410 was a suburban model lol. The sortment was 2212, 4410, 2115, 2216, 2105. 2113 and 4408 were there too off to the left of the photo.

Looks like the front sign is about to fall out.  Either that or it's a crazy illusion - looks like the drivers side is way lower than the passenger side.

CMBC's newest Seabus, the Burrard Chinook, crosses Vancouver Harbor approaching Lonsadale Quay on its second day of service.  This vessel has been given an art wrap showing the lifecycle of the Chinook Salmon it is named for, giving it a distinct appearance compared to the other Seabuses.

CMBC XN40 16048 lays over at the SFU exchange as a route 143 on September 7, 2021.  This was the first day of operation for route 143 in over a year.  When Simon Fraser University went to online learning due to the Covid-19 pandemic in March 2020, route 143 was cancelled, since its ridership vanished and there were alternative routes available.  With SFU resuming in person classes for September 2021, this route, along with route 44, has resumed operation.  Though for the time being it is running with 40 foot buses instead of artics.

Bratislava, Slovakia: Tatra T3G no. 7837+7838 approaches Trnavské mýto on September 21, 2021, making a rare appearance on an all day trip on route 4. Due to decreased service requirements caused by lockdown measures, most of Bratislava's fleet of modernized T3G cars (originally built in late 1989) were out of service in the early months of 2021. 7837+7838 was one such pair, and when they returned to service in May 2021 they encountered some difficulties with remaining in service for a full shift, causing them to be relegated first to morning rush hour only trips, and then later to standby vehicle services. On this day, 7837+7838 completed the entire shift without incident.
