Ask @anyfong he takes a lot of photos when he's at the Novabus factory.

I haven't been there in a while. The only way I can get photos that close is when they're closed on public holidays. Otherwise the only way to get clean photos is to get them on a test run outside, but you never know when it comes and it's hit or miss. Last month I had only spotted a TTC 3xxx diesel bus.

Are you going to the NovaBus factory during the long Thanksgiving weekend?

How about Vancouver Translink the new suburban version of LFS?? Someone posted the photo few days ago~~

I have not seen any of them today.

On the other hand, one of the first new LFS hybrids for TTC, recently completed 3411 is seen at the front of the Nova Bus factory at Saint-Eustache, QC.

WOW! CMBC as a bus ending with to "00s"? The CMBC never allowed that and always skipped it except for 7200 (New Flyer D40LF) which was numbered by mistake.

Are these the last of the 100 buses waiting to be in service?

Probably the one in the photo that @anyfong took above is possibly the only unit with the old driver's window (3400 possibly).

Wait, what? I had no idea that there were even two Novas for delivery this year. 
But 7036-18...there's already a 7036-07...
EDIT: Did you mean that the other Nova that was seen with the fleet number is 7035-18 and not 7036-18?
Any others for Burlington spotted recently?

According to photos shown to me by someone at OC, the following units are built awaiting delivery...

OC Transpo 4612 and 4613, with units up to 4626 on production line.

TTC 3498 along with 6 other units (cant see numbers in photos)

STM 39-040

There are many more units all white currently
