So when the ad comes off, if too much adhesive, so does the letters or numbers. So in some spots it could just be the a poor job. That's all I'm gonna say If there were decals that came off with the wrap, it was likely due to the wrap being on there for 1.5 years, exposed to various weather conditions including heat. Heat kind of melts the adhesive onto the bus so the bond of the temporary wrap became strong enough to peel off the permanent decals since it was on there for so long. Also, do the New Flyer badges on the rear of Xcelsiors still come with the NEW FLYER name or just the logo? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

8010 Posted January 28, 2020 Report Share Posted January 28, 2020 2 Novas on the R4 are booked out for 14 and 19 hours (blocks 4 & 11), yet there are XDE60s that are only booked out for a few hours during peak. I don't even care about the branding at this point, I just don't understand how these bookouts work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We had B-Line branded buses on non B-Line routes for years and no one cared. With that being set aside, I'm just as confused as you are about these bookouts.

What the heck is going on With the retirement of the D60LFs, do we have an artic shortage now? Maybe TL should be replacing more 40-footers with artics?

Not sure if this is a RTC operator getting training or a new CMBC operator? Double Decker bus training, Either an operator who transferred to RTC or someone who hasn't received training yet.
