S18166 on the #R1 today. Glad I don't need to ride that during rush hour...

Four total trips on the R1 this PM were XN40. Also, only 3 of the 10 XDE60 in STC were available the entire day, forcing some 503 to use RapidBus.

Bays 1 thru 3 (84, 33/68, and the suspended 44) at UBC are closed due to construction. 

Construction suggests the bays are getting real time info screens. Wondering if someone can confirm or anything - thanks in advance

It doesn’t seem like they know whether it’s LED or RapidBus displays being installed. Judging by the amount of pavement removed I would guess LED but I’m probably wrong since cost-cutting is TransLink’s favourite thing to do.

On a wiki page it says here, that

When in fact, Bus 18019 continued to has his wrap until February of this year (2021). 

I not a wiki editor, but maybe change it? (Or maybe not.)

Or enable more wiki editors because there’s still outdated info throughout the TransLink pages and I am not going to mention every error and hope someone decides to correct it in two weeks.

The Burrard Chinook is sporting some snazzy new colours. Pardon the poor photo; it’s the best I could do under the circumstances (taken yesterday afternoon).

Livestream announcement is set for 1pm on instagram. 

Word going around is that it's entering service for the afternoon rush.
