NovaBUS Fan Posted January 9, 2011 Share #17 Posted January 9, 2011 The RTL plans on buying only NovaBUS LFS HEVs, starting in 2012, in hopes in improving the decrease of greenhouse gas emissions. This is somewhat old news, but I thought I would inform you all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AlexLy Posted February 25, 2011 Author Share #20 Posted February 25, 2011 Longueuil RTL has received another batch of brand new Artics!!! Numbered exactly as the 210XX series. I saw some pics of 21077.B) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NovaBUS Fan Posted February 26, 2011 Share #21 Posted February 26, 2011 Out of the speculated "new batch", only 21077 has arrived, and is presently sitting inside the Saint-Hubert garage. In other news, up to now, we have confirmation that at least 24 new 40ft LFSs will begin service for the Saint-Hubert garage in the coming months. The 211XX series has been on delivery since the end of January - Beginning of February. The latest arrivals are 21102, 04, 05, and 24. Here are some pictures I managed to get at the garage (yes, I was allowed to go there). 21102, 04 and 05: 21124 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
