West Island Transit Fan Posted May 22, 2019 Report Share Posted May 22, 2019 I saw AN 24-240 again, this time on the 419. EDIT: 25-212 returned to service on the 191 tonight. Inactive since late November. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gerbil Posted May 25, 2019 Report Share Posted May 25, 2019 3 hours ago, Frozen Yogurt said: (well... today is an another day of front ramp schedule = full schedule) One of the Stinson extras on the 90 this morning (that I often take) showed as not being a front ramp bus. The trackers weren't working so I was kind of hoping for a 22-XXX or 23-2XX, but it ended up being 31-218. I skipped it. I ended up taking 25-216 on 90-24 (7:52 departure from Elmhurst). I think this is only the second time this run has received a bus (excluding renforts). The 7:36 departure wasn't cancelled either, so every bus came during AM rush. I also took 26-010 on 90-34 on my way home (16:32 departure from Atwater). That is the lowest priority PM rush departure (but it receives a bus most days now). I took LS 28-049 on the 144-W at 15:45 (MR run 410-41). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
En Transit Posted May 25, 2019 Report Share Posted May 25, 2019 Just saw a hybrid turning left into Gare Roxboro signed as « 806 Navette ». Anybody know about this? Perhaps it was a 206 driver who made an error on the display. 30-126, 31-026 and 26-036 are all on the 968. Saw a new flyer with some form of livery parked in parking lot by Chemin du Bois-Franc and De Miniac. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt Demers Posted May 26, 2019 Report Share Posted May 26, 2019 25-204 and 26-070 were on the 51 today. 25-204 is back from LaSalle. Mont Royal's 25-208 and 26-067 were both on the 106. Frontenac's 26-073 was on the 37. Engine sounds really rough when it takes off. Stinson's 24-223 was on the 113. Legendre's 24-275 is again a camera violation tonight but this time on the 30. Last camera violation bus I saw on Felix site was this bus on the 18! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

West Island Transit Fan Posted May 28, 2019 Report Share Posted May 28, 2019 Got 28-126 for the 6th time on the 419 this morning. Honestly I've gotten used to that bell and don't find it as annoying as before. It's more funny than annoying at this point to see people's reactions to it (someone ringed the bell and started to look around the bus all confused). AN 27-528 was on the 419 in the afternoon. 30-231 returned to service Friday on the 217 after a 5 month inactivity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
West Island Transit Fan Posted May 29, 2019 Report Share Posted May 29, 2019 Two buses were reactivated today: 30-198 on the 43 (inactive since September) and 26-038 on the 150 (inactive since October). AN 26-042 was on the 405 and their 28-079 was on the 496. LE 24-209 was on the 491. 39-004 was on the 747. It has the good seating layout. I took 29-036 on the 411-W from Lionel-Groulx. First, the driver did a strange but smart detour. Instead of turning left on Atwater from St-Jacques, he went straight and turned left on Vinet to St-Antoine. It was much faster than taking Atwater since the left turn light to St-Antoine is very short and takes forever. Although, I'm not sure buses are even allowed on Vinet since it was a very tight squeeze. Once on the highway, he started speeding like crazy. He was probably going 110-115 when an alarm went off and he was forced to slow down. EDIT: forgot to mention 36-902 on the 36 no longer has the Hydro Quebec wrap and it's missing its STM chevrons on the rear windows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gerbil Posted May 29, 2019 Report Share Posted May 29, 2019 30-233 was doing SPS service for the Orange line at Snowdon around 22:30 yesterday. 26-085 broke down on the 90-E at Ste. Anne-De-Bellevue/St. Jacques this morning. I saw it around 8:45. There were a lot of rocket buses in a row on the 90-W during PM rush today: 17:16 - 26-035 I took this one. 17:23 - 25-229 17:30 - 25-224 17:38 - 25-208 Also on the 90 today was MR 30-056. 27-534 was at Vendôme being driven by a mechanic around 17:30.

West Island Transit Fan Posted June 1, 2019 Report Share Posted June 1, 2019 Yesterday: AN 27-011 was on the 203 école for St-Thomas High School at 14:10. It's scheduled to leave at 14:32. AN 27-503 was on the 419. LE 30-817 was on the 470. Today: LE 30-817 was on the 470 again. SN 37-097 was on the 126. I decided to go for a ride, and there were only two people on board. Either there was no school or that is an extremely useless route. SN 24-222 was on the 171 (operating out of SL). 24-216 and 31-144 were running back to back on the 121. MR 25-248 was En Transit at Côte-Vertu. It was tracking on the 68 école before. AN 27-016 was on the LS extra of the 170 (16:57 from Côte-Vertu). It does the 196 before and the 208 after the 170. I got on this too and the driver was clearly unfamiliar with the route. It left 10 minutes late due to traffic caused by the Côte-Vertu Metro construction. AN 30-129 was on the 419. SN 24-302 was on the 207. The construction at Côte-Vertu Metro is absolutely terrible. It causes traffic everywhere and buses on the 121 and 171 or even those arriving from the west side are significantly slowed down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SMS Posted June 1, 2019 Report Share Posted June 1, 2019 This morning I took bus pics near TCV. Here's how many liveries I nailed (not counting doubles and one triple): RTL: 130 STM: 20 Transdev ghost white livery buses: 17 Ville de Saint-Jean-sur-Richelieu: 14 exo: 13 BLUS: 8 CIT Roussillon: 8 CIT Vallée du Richelieu: 2 Ville de Sainte-Julie: 2 CIT Haut-Saint-Laurent: 1 It took a lot of time to compile this information in a spread sheet afterwards, send photos to RTL colleagues and other friends... there is a reason why I do not do this every day anymore!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReusableNoseTissue Posted June 2, 2019 Report Share Posted June 2, 2019 Seen on Sherbrooke/West Hill at noon It could have been En Transit. It looked like it was empty and than proceeded to turn on Cavendish southbound, owing to the road closures. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
West Island Transit Fan Posted June 2, 2019 Report Share Posted June 2, 2019 On 5/31/2019 at 10:31 PM, Frozen Yogurt said: Perhaps the high school is having their exam period and students are finishing early? It's the end of the school year so perhaps that's why. Also, it seems like the lone 126-E departure goes to do the 115 after, so perhaps it's logistically less complicating to run the bus empty anyways till the end of the board period. I don't think it's a useless route because otherwise it would have been eliminated a long time ago. The 2017 ridership is 28 508 passengers, consider 180 school days per year and 4 departures per day, that would yield approximately 40 passengers per departure, which is decent. I 100% agree with you. I regret jumping to that conclusion. - - - LE 24-275 might be a camera violation on the 170 tonight: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
