Durham Region Transit 8516-8523 are New Flyer XD40 buses built in 2012. This batch is part of the Metrolinx Transit Purchasing Co-operative order for buses for delivery in 2011.[1]
Unlike the first batch of Xcelsiors, this series was fitted with Allison B400R transmissions at the request of the Oshawa Division.
After being fitted with bike racks, new Motorola radios, GFI fareboxes, and Presto equipment, the buses gradually entered service in the first week of June. They can be found on any conventional DRT route in and around Oshawa division.
