Logically, with the addition of 5022, it is no longer required and is no longer part of the active fleet. Not sure if it is still on property or not. Not sure what the status of 5021 is, but, it isn't listed as part of the active fleet. Could be in storage in case it's needed, could be for parts.

#5022 is ex SCT #928. #5021 isn't part of the active roster.

I would imagine they are also outfitted with emergency equipment kits.

3 NovaBus hybrids on order for March 2025 delivery with the NovaBus battery electrics, as well as 2 Champion 20 passenger cutaways from Kirkman, more or less ASAP.

LOL. The media doesn't have time for that. Hell, given the shots were outside of a garage by the looks of it, that might have been the best they could do standing outside the fence, especially given the short time frames needed to create the story. This is common place in reporting by the media. The important thing is that they reported the issue, and the routes affected.

Didn't catch the first bus to leave Edmonton, but, I did go and track down the 11AM departure. Universal #1138. The first departure from Calgary was due into Edmonton at 11:25. It ended up being 10-15 minutes late. Disappointingly, this trip used a plain Universal coach, #1129.

314 is most likely retired after an accident. At least 7 new buses, 323-329. Bonus: 101

I'm surprised those old Arboc's will see a second life. When I went out to Fort Saskatchewan about 1.5 months ago, once we knew the new buses were coming, they were regularly running just 1 of the Arboc's, and a ex Southland bus supplied by PWT. It was very common to see 1-2 Arboc sitting at the PWT garage in Edmonton. They did have tracking on Passiogo so I was pretty regularly checking on them and it was always the same Arboc and PWT bus in service.

At about the same time a driver started driving into The Quarters tunnel blocking one of the tracks.

Carbon steel frames.

Not quite. The RFP hasn't been issued yet. Can't look at anything until builders respond to the RFP.

That project is underway. U2's will probably be around until 2027, maybe 2028.
