Calgary Transit Bus System

[Nabinut]

What a wonderful sight to greet you…a 1978 GM Fishbowl ready for duty:

Even at 30 years old, this beauty can still out run a brand new Nova LFS:

Calgary Transit also has a rare New Flyer D40HF in service. Here is 7001 at the south end of Route 2:

Another unique part of their roster is 117 1990-1991 MCI Classics. Here is #5012 before its run on Route 44:

5111, one of 10 Ex-Connecticut Transit Classics is seen in Downtown Calgary after working an express run:

7545, a 1993 New Flyer D40LF is seen at 78th Avenue Loop before starting on Route 20:

Three mid-90s New Flyer D40LFs are pictured at Brentwood LRT Station:

6001, the first of 65 D60LFRs is seen just outside of Downtown Calgary with the skyline not too far away:

Also quirk in their fleet are 24 Eldorado EZ-Rider IIs. Here is #1608 on one of the NW loop routes:

And lastly, here is 8141, one of 60 recently purchased Nova LFSs at McKnight Station:
