97SCT Posted August 1, 2014 Report Share Posted August 1, 2014 Oh, and I can confirm that 1140 has indeed been retired as I was chatting to an operator this morning in which she told me it was done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

G.A Posted August 2, 2014 Report Share Posted August 2, 2014 @Lapscrew. 1143 just needs a lot of duct tape and it will be good as new. There are pics of the D40i on facebook. Now I wonder about the LFS for next year! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andru Posted November 24, 2014 Report Share Posted November 24, 2014 A new full-size bus will soon be rolling along the streets of the city. The $441,000 bus purchase, approved by Welland city council last week, will allow Welland Transit to replace one of its remaining fleet of five Blue Bird buses that has been prone to breakdowns. Welland Transit manager Alfred Stockwell said the new 40-seat Nova Bus, a full-sized accessible bus manufactured by a division of Volvo in Saint-Eustache, Qc., should be delivered by the spring and will be on the road in the city after a few months of preparation adding decals and radio equipment to it. full story Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Billster8724 Posted November 27, 2014 Report Share Posted November 27, 2014 Applied for Welland Transit last week, apparently there are openings every few months according to the HR department where I applied. Anyone know why? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lap_screw Posted November 29, 2014 Report Share Posted November 29, 2014 Applied for Welland Transit last week, apparently there are openings every few months according to the HR department where I applied. Anyone know why? they don't make much compared to their counterparts.. I'm sure that plays a factor when openings happen in the Falls,GO,St. Catharines etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Billster8724 Posted November 30, 2014 Report Share Posted November 30, 2014 Im glad to know that, I kinda was under the impression Ontario agencies made roughly the same as each other, with obvious exceptions. Do you know what they generally pay per hour starting? My ultimate goal was for St. Catharines Transit but it doesn't seem like they hire too often. One of these days I suppose Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mind you, media reports aren't always the best known sources for specific information on what buses will be replacing others. But, it seems like this is a sure bet.
