rgilmtl Posted November 17, 2021 Report Share Posted November 17, 2021 An exo Sud-Ouest coach caught fire while passing through Kahnawake last night. From the blurry video my dad sent me, it looks like one of the 2008 MCIs, so 82x338 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

West Island Transit Fan Posted December 24, 2021 Report Share Posted December 24, 2021 Presqu'île sent a lot of unusual things out this PM. I saw 375 on the 40 and minibus 377 was tracking on it. There were also minibuses 346 and 373 tracking on the 7. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LFS on the 40 happens when no coach is avliable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sdgta2008 Posted December 27, 2021 Report Share Posted December 27, 2021 375 was out again yesterday on A40. This morning 382 was on A40. Shortage of coaches...? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guess more due to very low ridership on the route due to no school / everything shutdown again. Some trips operated with cutaways during rush hour last week 385 Vicinity was also on the route mid-morning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

citfan2020 Posted January 16, 2022 Report Share Posted January 16, 2022 Any idea what will happen to Mansfield and TCV onc REM starts? i believe the only busses that will go there are CITSO, Sherbrooke, CITVR, CITHSL and maybe Ste Julie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, to answer the question... from my perspective as an outsider, I suspect there may still be some buses operating direct to Downtown Montreal even after the opening of REM. For example, Sainte-Julie route 600 still operates direct to Terminus Mansfield, despite going directly past Terminus Longueuil, which has the Metro line directly across into Montreal. TCV is stuck in place - it's got a lot of infrastructure into and surrounding it, it won't be going anywhere. However, if all of the commuter buses using Mansfield can be consolidated into TCV, then it's quite probable that Mansfield can be sold off and redeveloped. I suspect that's why it was built as an open air terminal, to act as a temporary relief of TCV, rather than being constructed in the base of a building like TCV, unable to be redeveloped once its usefulness has expired.

For example, Sainte-Julie route 600 still operates direct to Terminus Mansfield, despite going directly past Terminus Longueuil, which has the Metro line directly across into Montreal. RTL killed all TCV-bound routes with the exception of the 55 using Victoria bridge, so the fate of the exo lines should be similar. The goal of the CDPQi is to make money off the REM, as a result as many lines as possible will end at REM stations. In addition, certain territories (mainly south of the Mt-St-Hilaire train line) cannot have direct lines going to TCV during REM operation hours, as a result of a non-competition clause. In your example though, Ste-Julie is outside of the "origin" zone delimited. Mansfield is, from its inception, a temporary measure, and is a rented space as far as I can remember. The old amt dot qc dot ca website is no longer available, so it's a bit hard to find informations from back then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MontrealBusFan Posted February 6, 2022 Report Share Posted February 6, 2022 A few weeks ago i spotted a Transdev coach headed down Notre-Dame Ouest, going the same direction as the 36 Est, which I found strange, because a lot of the other exo buses were going down Rue St-Jacques.
