You need to understand that the Wiki is run on a volunteer basis, so it only gets updated when people have time. Further, XDE60s are only appearing on the 340 and 410 due to unusually high temperatures that probably (hopefully) won’t persist for much longer. Updating the Wiki with these limited occurrences would be misleading to those who are unfamiliar with our transit system as it would lead some to believe this is a more common occurrence. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PrimeTio Posted August 26, 2021 Report Share Posted August 26, 2021 Can we please stay on topic, the admins will deal with the person who’s causing nonsense. No need to be involved while he’s going to be banned anyways. @Ninja Bus Fan You will be receiving 70 units, but I’m not sure if all of them will be manufactured in Crookston on entirely.

Vancouvers Trolleys Posted August 26, 2021 Report Share Posted August 26, 2021 Saw this somewhere - be this 21002 bus really registered on T-Comm or be this a fake image? I guessing fake image! Photoshopped hoax. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ninja Bus Fan Posted August 27, 2021 Report Share Posted August 27, 2021 @SpadinaAve2134 If that's the case then why wouldn't they list it as 02 of 70 or 16 of 70. Also 25+50 does not equal 70 so is that a confirmed number? But thanks for the information though, much appreciated. Also do you know how many Translink units were there ?

I guessing fake image! Photoshopped hoax. Pretty easy to check for yourself, if you go to the website and search for 21002. The answer is no, the model isn't set yet. Knowing Dennis it would be a miracle if that was already set so soon after the fleet numbers being confirmed, let alone before any vehicles have been in service for at least a couple weeks 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MCW Metrobus Posted August 27, 2021 Report Share Posted August 27, 2021 I'm not sure why or how this came about, but 18473 was on the 430 yesterday morning. It doesn't show up on the T-Comm assignment history, so I assume someone coming off a highway tripper was asked to cover. It looked like there were some standees on board, but I couldn't see much beyond the seats directly behind the wheel well. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't know if it was the same bus, but there was a Nova Suburban doing the 430 yesterday (25th) afternoon for at least a couple of trips. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be fair, the 430 is the ExpressBus after all... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
