Coast Mountain Bus Company 8118–8156 are 39 2008 model New Flyer Industries DE60LFR units built in 2009.
Unit(s) | Engine | Hybrid System | Seating | Destination Sign |
---|---|---|---|---|
8118–8156 | Cummins ISL EPA 2007 330 hp | Allison EP50 System | 48 – 4ONE Aries | Luminator Horizon |
History
These are the first hybrid units in the fleet and entered revenue service in late July 2009.
This series is one of two orders in the fleet to have all-door kneeling, compared to other units in the fleet where there is only front-door kneeling. The other order to have all-door kneeling is the New Flyer D60LFR units. These units were one of the first orders delivered with the passenger voice-announcement and display systems by INIT pre-installed. CCTV cameras were installed in 2011. Compass Card readers were gradually installed starting in late 2012 and through 2013.
As part of an advertisement campaign by TELUS to promote the launch of their public Wi-Fi service, unit 8125 was equipped with free Wi-Fi in August 2014. Along with 9258 and 9266, these buses became the first in the system to have Wi-Fi. The service was discontinued in January 2015 after the end of the advertisement campaign. Wi-Fi returned to this series with an advertising campaign by Metropolis at Metrotown between August 2016 and January 2017 on units 8118 and 8144.
After an initial trial on the 9726–9791 series Novas, hard barriers were installed replacing the "shower curtain" installed on all non-barrier buses during the COVID-19 pandemic. Installation work on this series began in November 2023.
Deployment
This series is based out of Burnaby and Vancouver and can be commonly found on the following routes:
- 2 Macdonald
- 25 King Edward
- 44 UBC/Downtown
- 84 UBC/VCC–Clark Station
- 99 B-Line
- 143 Burquitlam Station/SFU
- 145 Production Station/SFU

- N8 Fraser/Downtown NightBus
- N17 UBC/Downtown NightBus
- N19 Surrey Central Station/Downtown NightBus

- N35 SFU/Downtown NightBus
Depending on operational requirements, they can also be found on routes 3 Main, 8 Fraser, 10 Granville, 20 Victoria/Downtown, R2 Marine Dr and R5 Hastings St.
Starting in late March 2024, some units began to transfer over to Vancouver ahead of the transfer of midday operations on the 44 UBC/Downtown and vehicle type change from 40-foot buses to 60-foot articulated buses on the 25 King Edward.
