Seashore_518203 Posted August 27, 2017 Report Share Posted August 27, 2017 Bus and Boat Tours in Toronto now has 7 ex-Megabus VanHool TD925 double-deck buses. Two are fully enclosed while the other 5 have a partial open top. They have already had a minor renumbering of one of their buses. Bus 85135, has been renumbered 85131. You can see in the attached photo of 85131 that the "1" at the end of the fleet number has been added and does not line up exactly with the rest of the number. A shot of the original number 85135 is also attached. The plate number (898 2BF) is the same with both fleet numbers and the final confirmation is that the VIN was checked on both fleet number versions and confirmed to be the same, 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shaun Posted August 31, 2017 Report Share Posted August 31, 2017 How did they convert them to be able to remove the roof? I assume they have a crane to do that. Are they stored outdoors overnight? Or they put a tarp over the open section? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ABC Companies in the US has an ongoing refurbishment program. They purchased a number of ex-Megabus TD925 buses and are removing the roofs as part of the refurbishment process, then sell them to clients.

I'm wondering if these were actually converted by someone else. They look different than the ones from ABC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Transportation, so yes it's Pacific Western. This would be one of the 2014 units previously wrapped for Safeway Tours, and now that they've been replaced PW is wrapping them in ad wraps to cover the old livery (similar to the 30xx coaches after the Airport Express route was abandoned). 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It better be cheap, i rather ride a school bus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leylandvictory2 Posted December 15, 2017 Report Share Posted December 15, 2017 Looks like it has an ex-Greyhound MCI bus in the background.
