BCT-3122-D800-10240 Posted October 16, 2019 Report Share Posted October 16, 2019 Spotted two brand new plain white CNG Nova's at 36th Street and 39th Ave N.E. Earlier today on their way to be washed and fueled before being delivered to Calgary Transit. One of them was displaying "3 Sandstone". It looked like they possibly had the smooth side passenger window look like #'s 8355-8362. I could not see any fleet numbers. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

M. Parsons Posted October 27, 2019 Report Share Posted October 27, 2019 Would these be part of the batch that had funding from the Alberta Community Transit Fund that was just axed? Wonder how that will work out! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
downbeat Posted November 7, 2019 Report Share Posted November 7, 2019 For what it’s worth, an entry for these buses has recently appeared on Transit 55. There are 30 buses, numbered 8395-8424. No info on any of them, obviously. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AirborneSheep Posted November 18, 2019 Report Share Posted November 18, 2019 I talked to a guy from Nova at CUTA and he said CT decided they liked the look of the flush mounted windows so we're getting them on the full 70 bus order Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
