Probably not in the first batch of 5. Three are needed for route 18. The second batch of 6, scheduled for early 2019 delivery will see routes 12, 42 and 52A added, and possibly others. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When the new XN60’s arrive is when they’ll start to be withdrawn from service. They’ll start with the worst shape ones or ones deemed needing work($$$).

These buses will replace all of the remaining 0600 artics (6 units) as well as 5 40' buses to be determined. The pilot bus for this order, 1820, was delivered sometime during the Christmas break. It will be followed by the rest of the order in approximately 1 month. It will still be 2-3 months before any enter service. The main difference with this batch is that there are no seats in the articulation joint, just stanchions. This reduces seating capacity by 2 to 50. These buses will eventually replace all of the 0610-0615 (DE60LFR) artics. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

newflyerinvero Posted January 23, 2019 Report Share Posted January 23, 2019 Is this Envision HSR plan similar to the 10-year improvement strategy? As far as I understand, the 10 year strategy has planned improvements to some current routes. Would or could this Envision project change anything to the 10 year strategy?
