BCT-3122-D800-10240 Posted February 10, 2009 Author Report Posted February 10, 2009 (edited) It seems that #122 has been very recently refurbished and repainted. http://www.busdrawings.com/coach/national/...national122.jpg Edited September 12, 2010 by MBTA9244-9640b
kevlo86 Posted February 11, 2009 Report Posted February 11, 2009 It seems that #122 has been very recently refurbished and repainted. I seem to recall that one was done by Spring 2007.
BCT-3122-D800-10240 Posted February 11, 2009 Author Report Posted February 11, 2009 I seem to recall that one was done by Spring 2007. Apparently so!! LOL! When I saw it the other day it looked so shiny which isn't always the norm so I thought it was a fresh one. Thanks!
Board Admin A. Wong Posted February 22, 2009 Board Admin Report Posted February 22, 2009 National 169 in Edmonton today.
Board Admin A. Wong Posted July 23, 2009 Board Admin Report Posted July 23, 2009 Apparently this blaze was caused by a tire that blew. http://www.edmontonjournal.com/news/fire+s...6726/story.html

They already have about 3 burned hulks sitting in their yard in S.E. Calgary.
BCT-3122-D800-10240 Posted August 2, 2009 Author Report Posted August 2, 2009 Spotted in the National Motor Coach yard in S.E. Calgary were Ex-BT&T J4500 #'s 108, 208 still in full BT&T Livery. They probably just picked them up not too long ago. Will have to see what they get numbered to. Also, a Burned hulk of a Prevost H3-45 numbered 208 with some sort of livery on it. I believe this coach may have been picked up for parts as it seems the fire damage seems contained to the front half of the coach.

Or have they gone under?
BCT-3122-D800-10240 Posted August 3, 2009 Author Report Posted August 3, 2009 What did BT&T get as replacements?? Or have they gone under? Went under sometime last year from what I recall.
Prevost Posted August 4, 2009 Report Posted August 4, 2009 Just googled Banff Transportation and Tours, their website redirects to another version of Pinnacle Tours.

Now that I think about it more, I seem to recall that the two companies basically merged? Bah! I am just not sure what happened and hope someone else can shed some light on this.

BCT-3122-D800-10240 Posted September 5, 2009 Author Report Posted September 5, 2009 Canadian National has Chartered National Motor Coach in this view.
BCT-3122-D800-10240 Posted September 19, 2009 Author Report Posted September 19, 2009 This past Thursday, I forgot to mention on here that I spotted National Motor Coach #200 which is one of the Ex-Banff Transportation & Tours 2008 MCI J4500's. Has anyone seen any of the two National Motor Coach Van Hool C2045's? I caught this shot of #203 over a year ago and I have not seen this one or any other VH for National since I got that photo of #203. I get the feeling National got rid of them already.
Board Admin A. Wong Posted July 9, 2010 Board Admin Report Posted July 9, 2010 192 was in town this morning.
BCT-3122-D800-10240 Posted September 5, 2010 Author Report Posted September 5, 2010 I have been trying to track down older and now retired coaches from the National fleet and today I was able to get the fleet number off of a previously unidentified MC-7 that has been parked in their yard for some time and it is #105. It has been added to the WIKI and here's an image: http://www.cptdb.ca/wiki/index.php?title=I...r_Coach_105.jpg
xqc13 Posted May 27, 2011 Report Posted May 27, 2011 Noticed that on the National page on the wiki, 175 is listed as an H3-45. I rode it yesterday however and it's actually an H3-41. http://www.cptdb.ca/wiki/index.php?title=N...nal_Motor_Coach
Board Admin A. Wong Posted June 4, 2011 Board Admin Report Posted June 4, 2011 Correct you are - thanks! Fixed!

kevlo86 Posted November 25, 2011 Report Posted November 25, 2011 Here are some photos to share, most of these are ex-Accent Lines units 171 (ex-Accent) working a Greyhound run in Calgary a couple years back. 173 working a Greyhound run in Calgary a couple years ago. 175 (ex-Accent) at Red Deer College. 176 (ex-Accent), they touched up the livery on this coach, it use to have some stripes on the side. 177 (ex-Accent), I think this is their best looking Prevost.
