West Island Transit Fan Posted June 4, 2021 Report Share Posted June 4, 2021 Anjou's 30-112 was on the 215LE, 39-060 was on the 411SN École, and 30-161 was on the 485 still not tracking. Also on the 485 was St-Laurent's 28-019 and LaSalle's 29-133. Frontenac's rockets 26-035 was on the 405 and 26-041 was on the 425. 26-041 has been on the same run for 3 days in a row. Mont-Royal's 30-050 was on the 496. It has 2 rear exterior fleet numbers, likely as a result of a wrap. 37-048 was on the 216SN not tracking.

@nthony2005 Posted June 5, 2021 Report Share Posted June 5, 2021 On 5/31/2021 at 9:07 PM, Blue Hybrid Bus said: Spotted 31-060 as En Transit on Cavendish/Thimens on its way to doing the 171-E. It also has black text surrounded by orange pixels. 28-093 was on the 171 LE extra. 31-157 and 38-041 were on the 121 school extras. Thursday evening, I saw 28-054 with the same sign and 37-020 yesterday morning! Is this a new sign they are testing ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MTL66 Posted June 5, 2021 Report Share Posted June 5, 2021 I doubt it's something new. Seems to be a programming error since it is only affecting a certain amount of units and not the entire fleet at Stinson/St-Laurent, who both recently got an update for the 810 exposure.

West Island Transit Fan Posted June 6, 2021 Report Share Posted June 6, 2021 28-067 was on the 43. Airport bus 31-212 was En Transit on Henri-Bourassa Est and 31-220 was on the 49 not tracking. Other not tracking buses: 29-068 on the 18 and 30-219 on the 48. 28-081 was on the 81. 29-055 was on the 18 with a gigantic rear interior fleet number. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LilianaUwU Posted June 7, 2021 Report Share Posted June 7, 2021 It seems as though ex-RTL 20521 will be used as a Vaccin-o-bus in Québec City.

Blue Hybrid Bus Posted June 8, 2021 Report Share Posted June 8, 2021 Anjou's 26-062 and 30-161 were on the 810. 30-161 was not tracking and it seemed to have done the 810 SN run. 31-004 was on the 64. Seems to be an added SN trip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
West Island Transit Fan Posted June 8, 2021 Report Share Posted June 8, 2021 Add 26-031 and 27-501 to the list of buses with the inverted En Transit sign. I took Frontenac rockets 26-031 and 26-051 on the 425 at 10:56 and 16:22 respectively. Both run very well. STL 2056 was on the 65 leaving Montmorency at 12:43. This departure seems to very reliably get the electric buses, although that will probably change with the new summer board period. Anjou's 26-062 was on the 810 SN run and 28-087 was on the 419.

Frozen Yogurt Posted June 10, 2021 Report Share Posted June 10, 2021 27-025 is an Anjou unit, actually. Monday. An incredibly rare sight: 27-022 was on the 16 midday. Yesterday. 27-013 was speeding along Côte-Vertu going westbound in the afternoon. With its tracker down for months, my best guess is it's temporarily running out of St-Laurent. Today. 27-529 was on the 171LE in the afternoon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think at the beginning of this year in January. 26-031 and 26-035 were on two consecutive departures of the 425 today (16:00 and 16:22 from LG).

MTL66 Posted June 11, 2021 Report Share Posted June 11, 2021 I keep seeing more and more buses with the inverted En Transit sign. Very hard to read in the sunlight, I hope this is not the plan going foward and that it is a programming error Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rgilmtl Posted June 11, 2021 Report Share Posted June 11, 2021 26-071, 30-075, 30-077, and 39-902 with the inverted en transit. 075 was also had the Ecole PR, which was normal orange on black. 902 is the first Luminator I've seen it on, the rear is affected on this one. Also, Solidaribus is still rolling around. I've already seen it twice today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's just a waste of power lighting up most of the lights like that. -- 38-069 was on the 164 with the headlights piece in white on the left. Saint-Laurent's 28-123 was on the 135. LaSalle's 29-133 was on the 196 Stinson extra. Frontenac's 38-002 was on the 213. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

West Island Transit Fan Posted June 13, 2021 Report Share Posted June 13, 2021 Yesterday, Anjou's 27-001 was not tracking on the 440. Also not tracking was LaSalle's 29-138 on the 136. Today, 26-030 was on the 211 and 26-031 on the 496. LaSalle seems to be getting more and more rockets, they have 15 now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ReusableNoseTissue Posted June 14, 2021 Report Share Posted June 14, 2021 Today: • 37-018 was on the 105 this afternoon. It is not tracking. • I caught AN’s 28-001 on the 810 shuttle bus this evening, most likely running out of SL. • 30-001 was parked at Vendôme doing the 102. It has that very underwhelming new front display patterns when “En transit”. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue Hybrid Bus Posted June 15, 2021 Report Share Posted June 15, 2021 26-062 was on the 460 this morning. 37-025 was on the 810 in the afternoon not tracking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frozen Yogurt Posted June 15, 2021 Report Share Posted June 15, 2021 The inverted display reminds me of something I read about other cities -- San Francisco if I recall -- using it to make the deadheading buses stand out for riders. Instead of having to read En Transit, the riders will see a blob of orange and know from afar that their bus isn't in service. The idea is good, but apparently the execution wasn't as good -- however, I have yet to see one bus displaying it this way to draw any conclusions. In other news, I saw 28-119 on the 177 last night. Turned out it was a big ramp violation! I knew it was rare because I never see old buses on the 177. Also, 29-803 was on the 121. 37-040 was on the 171 this afternoon. Filled to the doors, as expected. Legendre unexpectedly sent 28-035 on an all-day 121 run that started at 4:50 this morning. 31-829 was also on the 121; its engine sounds like a dying elephant.

According to an internal memo I was privy to, this is the exact reason why for the change, so people can see from far the bus is actually Out of Service with the destination sign having an orange background. They should of made the En Transit a bit bolder in my opinion. The small thin letters being used makes it hard to see in sunlight. In other news, the STM has hoped onto the Playoff Fever with a Habs themed bus running out of Frontenac. Will be assigned to Downtown Routes. Today it was assigned to the 75, 168, 178 and will end up on the 24 for the remaining part of the evening. 39-037 is the bus, I was able to get a picture of it at Terminus Pointe Sud this afternoon after following the bus for over 45 minutes trying to find a parking space and get my photo. When I was made aware it was going on the 168, I went straight to Nun's Island and waited for it there, thankfully the rain held off until late in the evening. https://www.instagram.com/p/CQH4xa-HIyV/?utm_source=ig_web_button_share_sheet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So the 13 has been all accessibility violations so far this board period. More from yesterday: Anjou's 27-008 was on the 161. Legendre's 29-802 and 30-810 were on the 165. Today: Frontenac's 26-031 was on the 71 this morning. St Laurent's 28-126 was on the 141. I took 26-041 on the 411 at 17:45 today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue Hybrid Bus Posted June 16, 2021 Report Share Posted June 16, 2021 Yesterday: Anjou’s 31-043 was on the 126 in the morning not tracking. Not sure where this bus was running out of especially since there are no schedules for this route this board period. 28-104 was on the 810 with a flickering front destination display. STL 2115 was on the 151, front destination sign displayed “151 STE-ROSE”. Later in the day I saw 1818 on the same route, but missing the rear exterior fleet number. Saint-Denis’ 29-059 was on the 810 SN run. Today: Stinson’s 31-188 has the wrap for the Tellement Montréal campaign. Saint-Denis’ 26-006 was on fhe 460 this morning not tracking. Anjou’s 27-529 and 28-086 were on the 171 school extras. 27-529 was not tracking. 30-843 was on the 121, its left headlight was not on. Anjou’s 30-165 is parked outside Centre de transport Saint-Laurent Also forgot to mention previously, but STL’s 2005 was on the 26 last Friday with the side destination sign displaying both the route number and the route name. Great to see the STL actually utilizing their side destination signs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
