Coast Mountain Bus Company 4101–4115 were a set of 15 GMDD T6H-5307N "Hillclimber" units built in 1982.
These units were the last "Fishbowl" buses ordered for Vancouver and one of two orders that had double rear doors instead of a single pair of doors. These were also the only "Fishbowl" buses in the fleet to be fitted with Otaco Innovator 850 seats and the tailpipe was located on the bottom of the bus instead of the top like most "Fishbowl" buses built after 1972.
From 1982–1996, these units were under the old fleet numbering system and numbered based on yard assignment . All units were renumbered in 1996 to their current numbers and while they formerly operated under BC Transit with Vancouver Regional Transit System , they ran with the same numbers after April 1999 when all Greater Vancouver operations split off into TransLink .
Near the end of their careers, most of these buses ran on peak-hour "trippers" and on low-performing routes based out of Port Coquitlam and were retired between late 2002 and late 2003. They were placed into storage and were scrapped in late 2007.
