BC Transit 6176-6178

BC Transit 6176-6178 were GMDD T6H-4521 "New Look" buses built in 1970.

They were originally built for BC Hydro Transit as 782-784, and were transferred to the Urban Transit Authority upon its creation in 1979. While officially numbered in the 8000 series, buses operating in Victoria typically only displayed the last 3 digits. Under the Unified Provincial Fleet (UPF) system, they were assigned fleet numbers 6176-6178, and were renumbered to their UPF fleet number when transferred to systems outside Victoria.
