 Flyers old and new. New 2214 appears to be saying "Sorry" to 2812 in the October 2007 autumn drizzle. A few weeks later and the old Flyers were retired as the artic New Flyers entered service on routes like the 20. |

 Coast Mountain Bus trolleys 2125 and 2234 together at the Marine Drive terminus of routes 10 and 17, just a short distance from the Vancouver Transit Centre base. |

 In the summer of 2007 ETS of Edmonton had borrowed Coast Mountain 2247 to test on its system, with a view to replacing the ageing fleet of GM Fishbowl trolleys. The E40LFR is seen in ETS' depot in August, out of service with the rest of the trolley fleet. During school holidays reduced peak demand means the trolley system is effectively switched off. Temporary fleet number 6000 was issued to 2247. Sadly it failed to impress and shortly after the decision was taken to replace the trolley fleet with cheaper hybrids. |

 Also in October 2007 is this view of the Vancouver Transit Centre still shared with some of the old Flyer E900 series models. |

 With $38 the prominent price for a pair of spectacles advertised on this Coast Mountain Bus E40LFR seen downtown in August 2009, one wonders if it was a coincidence that 2238 was chosen to display the ad. |
