Chris W Posted October 9, 2022 Report Share Posted October 9, 2022 14 hours ago, Michel said: Seems like Ontario Northland has received an order of Prevost H3-45 coaches. Spotted one fully decalled at the Sudbury garage today. Did you get a fleet number? I know that they have at least three Prevosts from Angel Tours on loan. They have SPRING, SUMMER and WINTER.

The one I saw yesterday that was fully decaled looked to have a 4 digit fleet number, but I didn't stop to look more closely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The four digit number was likely 1701 which has been spotted in the full livery. Bus "AUTUMN" is also in the full livery but does not have a fleet number and still maintains the old Angel name. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prevost Posted October 25, 2022 Report Share Posted October 25, 2022 Ontario Northland is really classing things up with these Prevost H3-45s! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seashore_518203 Posted October 26, 2022 Report Share Posted October 26, 2022 From TransSee today, I noticed that 1917 is tracking. Any idea as to the make/model of this unit? As a side note, it appears that J3500 # 1910 is finally trackable on TransSee. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Articulated Posted November 1, 2022 Report Share Posted November 1, 2022 1918 is also a TEMSA TS 45: According to another user on Facebook, a license plate search indicates this is ex-Rider Express 20, which was exx-Ontario Northland 1915. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Articulated Posted December 7, 2022 Report Share Posted December 7, 2022 It's taken a fair bit of tracking down, but it seems like the H3-45 coaches that Ontario Northland leased then purchased from Angel Tours have finally been identified and accounted for. They've kept two 2017 units and two 2018 units: 1701 - ex-TRILLIUM 1702 - ex-AUTUMN 1801 - ex-SPRING 1802 - ex-SUMMER Two 2016 units (CLASSIC and LEGEND) were also identified as leased but not purchased. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is also an 1803. I was able to check the VIN on it and it is ex-WINTER. It is fully painted and numbered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seashore_518203 Posted January 31, 2023 Report Share Posted January 31, 2023 I notice on TransSee that there is a bus 1916 tracking now.

Joshuamumble Posted February 11, 2023 Report Share Posted February 11, 2023 Looks like the H3-45s are now getting a LED display installed above the driver's seat and are equipped with next stop announcements which enables the GPS tracker to operate, as seen on 1916 this morning EDIT 04/23: 1701, 1801 and 1803 do not have a LED display yet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are these filling in while the Jseries wait for parts? It's my understanding that Ontario Northland purchased the newest Angel Tours H3-45 fleet after the owners retired. Those buses became 1701-1702, 1801-1803 and 1916. The MCIs have been back on the road for a few months. They bought the Angel buses and the two formerly leased TEMSA coaches for expansion and replacement of the older X3-45s and the two TEMSA TS 35E mini-coaches that were sold off.

Only 1916 has the LED sign to my knowledge, the older H3-45s do not (this was when I last saw 1801 in February), however it has a next stop/external announcement system installed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
