This: has to be spotted at RTC or the scrapyard Unless we have another case of 9223 (which is really annoying because nobody was able to confirm that until several months after) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MCW Metrobus Posted September 3, 2019 Report Share Posted September 3, 2019 2 hours ago, Express691 said: I'd rather confirm, not speculate please and thanks I can confirm that 9231 was parked in RTC last night. Also spotted 9235 being driven in early this afternoon, by a mechanic, but T-Comm shows it went out in service this morning anyway on RTC routes. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
briguychau Posted September 4, 2019 Report Share Posted September 4, 2019 In any case, 9231 is operating an afternoon block out of RTC. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cleowin Posted September 4, 2019 Report Share Posted September 4, 2019 This makes more sense, send the 2019's to STC, no transfers to HTC necessary except for the ones already sent to accommodate the 340. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could follow it up by having PCT take back the remaining 6 2014s and HTC taking a few more of of the higher numbered 18100s (18192-18197) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michael Marriott Posted September 12, 2019 Report Share Posted September 12, 2019 2 minutes ago, Evan Hancock said: 3101 to PTC from BTC on Sunday No it wasn't, given that 3101 doesn't exist anymore. Old/wrong numbers show up occasionally when a T-Mac is swapped or replaced and hasn't been updated with the new vehicle number, like how 18061 was reporting as 2710 when it first went into service. Now, please use some logic before posting something like this. Ask yourself what is more likely, a) a long retired/scrapped bus is suddenly reactivated and switched yards or b) there was a malfunction in the computer equipment/tracking. Given that 3101 was a D40 that would have been retired a decade ago, the logical conclusion one should have drawn upon seeing it reporting on TComm is that there is a glitch/wrong information entered somewhere. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FL04DIFN Posted September 13, 2019 Report Share Posted September 13, 2019 It seems like HTC is just taking everything from the other TCs. The last 4 2009 LFS HEVs that they acquired from VTC were meant to replace the 4 2016 XN40s loaned to STC. Now, not only did they take 9 2018 XN40s, but they still took back their 2016s as well. Yet Surrey is still losing its D40LFs. Bet that by the end of the year, HTC will end up with all 3rd gen nova hybrids, and maybe even half of the 2018s. In fact, they might even start up a whole new suburb of Metro Vancouver, and will control Queensborough, Annacis Island, and Connaught Heights. And they’ll put toll booths on the Alex Fraser Bridge. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What you're saying is that HTC wants to become its own country and raid the rest of Metro Vancouver every now and then? 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
