Gerbil Posted June 5, 2020 Report Share Posted June 5, 2020 Spotted two CFTR training buses in my area today (near the Montreal-Ouest train station). I apologize for the horrendous images. They caught me by surprise. 6005 drove by while I was looking out the window. The D40LF is numbered 6008. Does anyone know the origins of these buses? EDIT: Facebook discussions suggest the New Flyer is a Ex-London Transit 2006 model 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stinson's 28-110 was on the 48, their 28-111 on the 26 and their 28-130 on the 44. 28-110 was not tracking. Frontenac's 26-068 was on the 48X. 26-076 was on the 32 with the double rear fleet numbers still. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rgilmtl Posted June 7, 2020 Report Share Posted June 7, 2020 I've seen the CFTRs on Newman a few times. 6005's old number can be seen on the inside through the windows. It was 356-2, which matches to an ex-Nova demo on the wiki's LFS page. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue Hybrid Bus Posted June 9, 2020 Report Share Posted June 9, 2020 06/08: SN 24-297 was on the 201 with the new card reader on the front. 06/09: I passed by Prévost Montréal again and saw 40-074 parked outside. I couldnt tell if it had the full rooftop or not. 37-013 was parked outside with its "back lid" on the rear top open. It looked burnt, so it could of been fire damage.

'E' It seems to be common on many of the STM's vehicles. 39-402 had it as well, and I've seen it on support vehicles. According to Charles Thibodeau on the Facebook group, it stands for Essence.

According to Charles Thibodeau on the Facebook group, it stands for Essence. Exactly. The letter was added because the STM started purchasing cutaways that run on Gas instead of Diesel so that the person who fuels the bus knows that the bus must be fueled with gas and not diesel. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah, thank you both for the answer. -- 25-222 and 26-020 were on the 18. 26-020 has a tiny Priorite sign. 26-063 and 26-065 were on the 186. 26-065 wasn't tracking. Mont Royal's 25-245 and 30-072 were both on the 44 while their 30-079 was on the 141. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReusableNoseTissue Posted June 16, 2020 Report Share Posted June 16, 2020 Yesterday: • AN’s 27-007 was on the 104 in the morning. Today: • AN’s 28-086 was on the 105 this morning. • MR’s 30-062 and SL’s 38-082 were on the 138 this morning. The latter was quite surprising to see.

West Island Transit Fan Posted June 17, 2020 Report Share Posted June 17, 2020 Yesterday: 31-019 was on the 201. This bus has been at SL since April 27. AN 39-116 was on the 425. It wasn't tracking. I think this is also the first mobile COVID-19 testing clinic to be back in service. Today: 26-016 was on the 419. This bus has been at SL since April 23.

Seems like a lot of LS buses have them now. I've seen it on 28-701, 29-072 and 29-145. - I took 36-012 on the 51 this evening. Bad luck for me, since it was one of only 2 MR buses out that didn't have AC. At least I was the only passenger most of the way. 39-114 was also on the 51, not tracking. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Demers Posted June 22, 2020 Report Share Posted June 22, 2020 Yesterday, Anjou's 28-086 was parked outside Stinson. -- Today: St. Laurent's 28-028 and 28-038 were both on the 55. 28-028 was not tracking. 30-206 was getting towed by the white STM tow truck from Cremazie Metro this afternoon. Mont Royal's 25-248 was on the 211. It has a really faded Priorite sign and no website URL. Equally, their 26-042 was on the 90 this afternoon. Anjou's 30-099 and 30-191 were parked outside Frontenac. 30-191 got repaired after an accident this past winter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gerbil Posted June 23, 2020 Report Share Posted June 23, 2020 I saw 39-506 on Saint Jacques this morning. It's different from 39-518 in that it doesn't have a destination sign. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue Hybrid Bus Posted June 24, 2020 Report Share Posted June 24, 2020 29-091 was on the 211 with the new rear-view driver mirror. It seems that many LS buses are being retrofitted with the new mirror. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
