They can probably fix it with parts from the boneyard. If not I'm sure new flyer has an aftermarket parts dealer they can buy from

Oh that’s cool so 1753 will return to service. Now I’m wondering why 1925 isn’t being fixed.

Yeah remember we are a year away from retiring up to 600 buses so anything that is a headache might be up for scrapping.

#1753 will end up similar to that of #1883 so i'm not going to rush judgment on it after seeing it.

Oh yeah I forgot about 1883 when it wrecked into a building but that bus took months for repair so probably same with 1753 and it’ll be out once summer is over probably if it takes the same amount of time to repair

Love those north side videos and got a few questions

1. Why do some novas have their engine doors open are they being inspected? (6870, 6861, 6862 side door, 6770)

2. I saw something on 6706's seat did you see what that was?

3. Since 6875 is sitting in the area where active buses are, is that one ready to return to service?

4. Wow I didn't know 1008 was out for that long (it was last out in January before those big snowstorms)

Well mostly right now there's quite a few #8000's in the shops along with the many artics, #4383 is there from what I can remember also #7955 is there as well, I did see one #6400 in the big overhaul shop though so I don't know what the case may be with that bus but I did get to see #8499.

We’re not officially sure though but CPTDB could’ve marked them missing in action
