Calgary Transit 2001 D40LF #7733 wrapped. Enjoy! We seem to have several of this same wrap. I have seen #'s 7550, 7929, and at least one other one besides the attached photo and the ones mentioned.

We got the same ad wraps here in Montreal for Bell. So far I counted 3 buses that have them; 26-033, 26-040 and 26-084.

Here's the link to my ad wrap bus section on my original site. Other current wraps are for visit Mexico and Amarula.

I keep track of every single ad-wrap bus in Vancouver, despite the fact that sometimes there are a bunch of them that has been wrapped up for the same organization / business!

These are my photos:

Enjoy!

The Bell wrap has been applied to D40s, one D40LF and a Flyer E901A trolleybus in Vancouver!

Tourism Mexico is one of the largest-scale ad-wrap campaign we've ever had in Vancouver...............a total of 8 buses wrapped up for Tourism Mexico!

According to one of my "special contacts"...........the Bell Wrap (not the Brantford one!) would be taken off in the next week or 2.............so if you want photos and haven't yet done so, grab your camera out there ASAP!

I'm guessing this would be nation wide? There's the same Bell wraps in just about all major Canadian cities.

Depends on when did the buses get wrapped.............but even if the wraps do not get taken off at the same time, the time in between shouldn't be a great difference!

Seen those on majority of NABI in Buffalo. Some of the wraps have been sitting there for several years, can see some rust building up from the body, enough to peel by hand.
More and more transit system are sticking to LF because of economical issues! Where as HF, it will be a rare to see in much future times!

As of April 2009, I have finally rode Nova Classic T-drive, two types of different engine! Which ones is better? Series 50 all the way man!

Is that bus "wrapped" (as in stickers) or painted?
