Today's Sightings


Recommended Posts

Its starting to sound like a glitch. But is it entirely possible that stuff like this can be tested on random buses?

I remember seeing 33-999 doing that as well when I first got on it on the 32 back in June, but it never happened the next times I've been on it.

I wonder if it has something to do with iBus...

I happened to ride 2nd gens on STM route 139 in the last couple of days.

The first one I rode was on the 17th, the destination sign had the «École» banner at 21:38. I just wonder what the hell was going on, but then I remembered this and smiled.

40-footers remind you of how popular that route is, with people piling up inside the bus at the metro station.

RTL 20602 was on the 45 today and was the sole Van Hool tonight along with LFS artics 21053 and 21056. Got 21053 on the way back from Bonaventure.

RTL 21305 was on the 50 tonight so I got on it. If you are sitting directly under the light, it might be very uncomfortable to some. With these new buses, there are no more stop request cords, the Arret Demande up front sits a few inches lower and the seats have aluminum backing. That metal finish behind the seats looks neat and the bus can keep up but then again it doesn't come with the Topodyn BS!

Yup. Legendre got 193 since Stinson opened. There will be some jeopardy in the next few weeks concerning the artic routes.

EDIT : 193, 197 and (you already know that) 470 will get artics, according to an Andy Riga tweet, although I'm not able to find an STM confirmation.

When I went to take the 470 yesterday to try out the new artics on Autoroute 40, the line was served by the new 33-8xx and a few older artics only. No sight of any 40-footers.
