hamilton.area.transit Posted October 27, 2022 Report Share Posted October 27, 2022 2 hours ago, Vekoma said: I'm an HSR driver and you are correct, the Mountaineer route will have 2 blocks at any given time completing a full loop every hour, for half-hour service. On demand will then have 2 buses at any given time. Obviously, both blocks are Garage to Garage, so you'll have 2 buses in the AM, then 2 new ones for the PM. Ok i am correct for once. I first heard about this on Saturday from a driver i know but i was going to wait until its 100% confirmed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leapster10 Posted December 7, 2022 Report Share Posted December 7, 2022 Bus 2115 has broken down on-route already... I believe it was on route 23. I've just seen it be towed away from the nearby KFC at the traffic lights. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buses experience issues frequently, whether they're new or old. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any idea which section of Barton St. specifically that wrecked the bus? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have not been "up the hill" for a few days so there could be more up there. 2203 has been delivered (no photo for proof, but I did see it) so no list can ever be totally up to date. 6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All he said was that his source had differing information and gave the as-then reported fleet numbers. You're getting all worked up and passive-aggressive over that? Nobody should be made to feel like they have to walk around like they're on eggshells over something so minor.
