A. Wong Posted March 27, 2007 Report Share Posted March 27, 2007 ADQ's Mario Dumont has a campaign bus - a Prevost X3-45. From the picture, I wrote down ICCMC 267873 and USDOT 536675, but those don't return any results for a company. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BCT-3122-D800-10240 Posted March 30, 2007 Author Report Share Posted March 30, 2007 Also while in Banff yesterday, I drove by the Brewster Yard and noticed a few of the new J4500's. #304 comes to mind as one of those units. And also, noticed that MC-9 #4 is probably retired for good as the front end has some considerable damage on the right side. I forget what year these are, but I believe they are about 1982 or 1983's. So I doubt they will fix this one and return it to service. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BCT-3122-D800-10240 Posted April 17, 2007 Author Report Share Posted April 17, 2007 It seems a few Greyhound Coaches are showing up in the "Ghost" scheme after refurbishing. Here is #1070 taken on April 12, 2007 in the Greyhound Compound near the Downtown core in Calgary. Enjoy! Also, notice the rear bumper does not haev the usual black rubber strip.

Enviro 500 Posted April 22, 2007 Report Share Posted April 22, 2007 Spotted a Vanhool coach running around downtown Vancouver in the past couple of days: Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A. Wong Posted April 22, 2007 Report Share Posted April 22, 2007 Very nice! Traxx is moving away from Prevost I guess. For the record, that's probably one of the few VanHool C2045s owned by a Canadian company! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevlo86 Posted April 22, 2007 Report Share Posted April 22, 2007 Spotted a Vanhool coach running around downtown Vancouver in the past couple of days: Dave Wow, first Traxx (former To-tem) goes for a few Setra coaches and now atleast one Van Hool C2045E! Wonder if they aren't happy with Prevost or something or maybe they want to just try new things out! I imagine the latter is the case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A. Wong Posted April 22, 2007 Report Share Posted April 22, 2007 Now European style can be added to the list of advantages I guess. They cheaped out on the fog lights though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevlo86 Posted April 22, 2007 Report Share Posted April 22, 2007 They also "cheaped out" on a white base paint job haha... To-tem/Traxx has got to be one of the fastest growing coach companies in Western Canada in recent years, next to MTR Western. Tons of new/updated equipment for both companies.
