H4 5600 Posted February 22, 2023 Report Share Posted February 22, 2023 I believe 2368 was built in december 2003, and the MiWay 03's were built in june-july 2003. It looks like MiWay 0302 is the oldest active bus in ontario. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Within a couple months, i do see 2368 being the oldest unit in the provice with the large order of New Flyer Xcelsior Hybrid buses being delivered/already delivered to Miway. Thank you for the corrections! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Theyre going to be used for Regional service. I don't think there's any differentiation between Regional and local routes any longer... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Indeed, Niagara Falls Transit, Niagara Regional Transit, St Catherines Transit, Erie Transit and Welland Transit are all one system and is called Niagara Regional Transit and buses could run in any area now (at least 40 fts) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That does seem possible as a Welland Arboc was spotted on a Niagara Falls route not long ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Humulator1 Posted September 4, 2023 Report Share Posted September 4, 2023 I'm not sure if this is the place to put it since this is wego but I couldn't find anything wego-specific. Niagara parks has more than just 9000-9009 and 9010-9011 which are what are said on the wiki, since I saw this 9013(articulated) bus. Not sure how many of them are, or when they were built. A noticeable difference from the 2012 niagara park division buses is that it has a back destination sign. This is a photo of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PHATMATT51 Posted September 4, 2023 Report Share Posted September 4, 2023 Sorry to say but it's fake. Look at the license plate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
97SCT Posted September 4, 2023 Report Share Posted September 4, 2023 Several of NFT's WEGO units were transferred to the Parks Commission; 5204 is now 9015. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like the other poster said many of the units have been transferred over and renumbered and have most likely been replated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ok so its just a former Nigara falls transit wego unit then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PHATMATT51 Posted September 4, 2023 Report Share Posted September 4, 2023 So if this true which I doubt. Why hasn't the wiki been updated? Seams like that's the first thing to be done before the bus even shows up. Heck you guys had the rideCK buses posted before they even came to Chatham. And these buses are supposedly running the streets? Someone is slacking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Closest one lives in the St. Catharines area. It will get updated once we find out what the numbers are and what has been transferred over. With all the big changes there it can be hard to catch every detail right away especially for a newly large single system. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wiki editors also have lives outside of CPTDB, additional like G.A said, none of us live in Niagara, which makes it less likely for us to update info since we don’t know the system inside and out. Finally, if the information isn’t out of the forum, how are we supposed to input info into the wiki… 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Uses that are comng in 2024 but can't update current vehicles on the road?? Don't worry I'll be at the falls tomorrow for a few days and I'll see for myself if these buses actually exist Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PHATMATT51 Posted September 8, 2023 Report Share Posted September 8, 2023 So I owe someone a Pepsi Back from the falls. From a driver. They 4 buses from different systems area as the are joining together 1-40ft 9012 And 3 60 ft 9013-9015 They have the regular transit system fare boxes etc currentlyy So for now the buses have been used for over loads for go transit and where needed Got this from a drive while they were having lunch. When they get the equipment they will be used for wego. Don't shoot the messages. Just what I was told Also got to ride all the wego routes one last time. Health hasn't been too great lately(Damm brain cancer) but the drivers were really nice and accomodating. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
laliok Posted September 20, 2023 Report Share Posted September 20, 2023 I've noticed over the past month the only OG orion 7 Niagara falls still runs is 2368. Is 2368 the only one not retired yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
