1037-1039 were delivered in early July 2009, and were originally numbered 0937-0939. 1040 was delivered later in July 2009 and 1041 in August 2009.


As delivered the drivers compartment of 0937-0939 were separated from the passengers by a bar. As they were modified to allow the driver access to the passenger area they were renumbered 1037-1039.
As delivered the drivers compartment of 0937-0939 were separated from the passengers by a bar. They were modified shortly after entering service to allow the driver access to the passenger area, and were renumbered to 1037-1039 at the same time.


These buses were notorious for their poor ride quality as well as a tendency for exhaust gases to seep into the passenger's cabin (several IC bus cutaways built for [[Coast Mountain Bus Company|CMBC]] were similarly plagued with this defect), and as such were disliked by most drivers.
