West Vancouver Municipal Transit 990-998

West Vancouver Municipal Transit 990–998 were New Flyer Industries D40LF units built in 1999. They were the last WVMT units owned by the District of West Vancouver. These units are also the last to be painted in the West Vancouver Blue Bus livery.

Unit 995 was initially held for restoration after its retirement in 2019. However, due to frame rot that had worsened over time, 995 was scrapped in January 2023.
