BCT-3122-D800-10240 Posted April 27, 2007 Author Report Share Posted April 27, 2007 Spotted a Vanhool coach running around downtown Vancouver in the past couple of days: Dave Nice shot Dave! I wonder how many of these Van Hools Traxx has? I spotted another one today. #844. I wonder if 842 and 843 are also VH's! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BCT-3122-D800-10240 Posted April 30, 2007 Author Report Share Posted April 30, 2007 Brewster has updated Prevost H3-45 #274 with newer styled headlights and the new two peice front windsheild. I wonder if they have done any other units in the fleet. Anyone know? #274 looks similar to the work that Charter Bus Lines of British Columbia did to many of their H series Prevost coaches.

The work was done at Western Bus in Vancouver, using the same kit that Charter used on their H's Bruce Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That explains why it seems none of the others (That I have seen) have been done. Thanks Bruce! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BCT-3122-D800-10240 Posted May 17, 2007 Author Report Share Posted May 17, 2007 This one looks like an Ex-Maverick Coach Lines. 1976 MCI MC-5B. Fleet number would match as well. It is for sale just outside of Kelowna where I found it two days ago during my trip. It can be leased as well. Photo number is shown in the photos. The area code would be 250 btw. Enjoy!

canuck600 Posted May 17, 2007 Report Share Posted May 17, 2007 Hi Peter that is indeed ex Maverick for sale at Willingham in Kelowna. Were there any other coaches in Willinghams yard? They no longer have the sales lot on the highway, their lot/building is on Old Vernon Road. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Were there any other coaches in Willinghams yard? They no longer have the sales lot on the highway, their lot/building is on Old Vernon Road. This bus was not in anyone's yard. It was parked on a side street right next to the main Highway. Not a single other bus was near it nor any company that would be selling buses. So did U see Greyhound #1199 head through Salmon Arm Yesterday by chance? I was on that one! :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A. Wong Posted May 27, 2007 Report Share Posted May 27, 2007 Strathcona County Transit 1007 is with Anderson Vacations right now. Totem 832 was at the Canadian Tire parking lot near Belvedere - looks like the same base color as PWT. Southland 2219 was here in Edmonton on a charter.
