Oakville Transit 891-897 were New Flyer D40 buses built in 1989.

Most of these buses underwent refurbishment at Eastway Refurbishing. Along with a mechanical overhaul, they were given LED destination signs, tinted windows, new seat inserts, new floors, and enlarged driver's areas. They were repainted into the current livery, and 892, 894 and 895 were given custom rear HVAC units.
