stm_5307N Posted October 23, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 23, 2006 Wasn't the Ex-TTCs the last ones delivered with roll signs? Or did we retrofit them with roll signs. They had rollsigns when they came to Ottawa, but were talking about buses originally delivered to OC Transpo and not second hand buses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's been a question bothering me for a long time now. When you take over 1000 pics over the span of a few days, you can't post them all in one shot. Well only if you have no life, and that's not the case in my situation. When I have time, I upload a few pictures. I usually do around 35 each time. I find it makes it more interesting this way, as there's always some fresh new content on the site. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Orion VIII Posted November 4, 2006 Report Share Posted November 4, 2006 It's called a memory card, get one. Or a few. I hate having to use my 256, but if I get lazy one week, or take a lot of pictures, like if I use my camera at school, then I'm usually stuck using it for 80ish pictures. My dad and I have 3 1gb, 4 512mb, 1 256mb, 1 32mb and 1 8mb, along with his built in 32mb to share, and often if we are out all day at Bayview or Snider/Mac, we often get low on space and either lower our resuolution or if we have the laptop with us, then put the pictures on it. I guess this is a lot better than the hundreds of 3 1/2" disks I used to carry around Question for Ottawa people: Were the 97/98 Vs the last buses numbered with that numbering scheme with the VIs and D60LFs the first in the new one?

M. Wright Posted November 4, 2006 Report Share Posted November 4, 2006 It's called a memory card, get one. Yeah but film cameras held about 30 pictures right? So I can pretty much survive without a memory card unless I take a trip to another city. I find it funny how you worded it though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Awsome man!!! I was exploring your site while you were updating it because my friend spotted a Classic on the 1 and Apparently it wasn't a 1X so yeah I was using your pictures to help him find it. He never got the Fleet Number but apparently it was rusting. Now time to post in the Ottawa Bus spottings thread! BTW Thank you for your awsome site!
