STO's Ex Calgary Classics are retired now. Bring an end of Classic era at STO

late next year

Follow up order is coming too

Been in the lot/garage twice. They have always been friendly to foamers/fans if you talk nicely to them

Looks like it will be used to make parts. Wonder if they will also make it a finishing centre as well to win more NY state orders

https://www.newflyer.com/locations/ As this its listed as manufacturing

Jamestown is listed on NFI site as a manufacturing plant. Looks like they want to do this so they can get more NY state orders to compete with Volvo (Nova/Prevost) on NY state orders. I would not be shocked if other NFI brands would be partly built here as well.

St Cloud Minnesota Crookston Minnesota Anniston Alabama

New Flyer has 3 plants in the USA and one in Canada. Now gonna change to 2 in Canada and 5 in the USA with the purchase of Alexander Dennis and opening of Jamestown NY plant. Im also not counting the MCI plants and Arboc plant which would add another 3 plants.

They look to be purchased new IC buses

Smart thing would be a new express route with a stop in Union City to the Mall just like the current 111 route to Jersey Gardens Mall

Already saw that. It does not have the history of the DE40LF in terms of numbers or fleet number, history etc.

Wonder if the DE40LF was ex Crystal Transport as well as they used to have one from the fleet roster posted

Pretty much with modifications to Via specs

American Airlines

Are the Designlines still stored in that yard on Tonnelle Ave?

Most were scrapped. Some saved for work car use and museums

Good to know as when they are back I want to come down and ride them

GO transit has the same problems with theirs. Glad go never took the options beside the couple test buses that they got.

First Transit is the contractor for Foothills.

All of Foothill's CNG V's were suburbans as they ran into downtown LA on the highway express routes.

I have heard up to 20 coming. I only can confirm from NICE that they said they have 6 on the property before Christmas.

Anyone know the former Foothill fleet numbers of the V's that NICE picked up. So they would just be in service a year or two until the new order can be placed?

Wonder if NABI gave them a last min option for these that was in the documents.

416 is out for 100% sure unless they went to NFI/NABI with a 1000 bus order
