Farewell to the 200's

[@diegocampbell4040]

I.oved that bus so much I would always waiting for it to come 😀

[@lijiang2743]

I assume these buses might return to active service by December 3, 2024. Same goes for the 1998-2002 New Flyer D40LF's #4046-4159, 4161-4176, 4178-4258, 4261-63, 4266, 4268, 4270, 4271, 4273-90, 4292-4306, 4309, 4310, 4312, 4315, 4330, and 4332 as a replacement for the 2005-06 New Flyer D40LF's #4478-4522 by the time they retire in 2029, and 2007-2012 New Flyer D40LFR's #4523-4879 by the time they retire in 2034.

I'm assuming 1998 D40LFs will retire in 2019-20 and to 2005 all will be retired in 2029-2034 (Years) same as D40LFR's

[@kidq1249]

my goodness, i predicted this 7 years ago & it being 2023, a lot of the 4200 and 4300 series are being pulled from service due to their life span having to be due. it’s gonna be 2030 in JUST 7 years & maybe less than 1 quart of the remaining to this day iconic D40LF(R)’s will be in service for the next 4-5 years of the 2030’s. after that while, the only remaining bit of diesel buses left in the edmonton transit service will be the XD40’s and the XD60’s.

[@MassivePanda1991]

But the Fleet Numbers of 200 series will be used in the future. For Newer buses or No?

[@thewinnipegtransitfan1014]

I miss those buses so much go Detroit

[@dayannamackintoshbaena298]

They are still using them as emergency ones like if a bus breaks done they will send or use that one. And they use them for charter buses.

[@dayannamackintoshbaena298]

+TheMaul3r_Real Cool...I already new that.

[@MassivePanda1991]

What about the 1994 D40LF's? (Not 1993)

[@sunnysingh2056]

Who's watching in 2024

[@megs905]

Are these having a 2nd life or going straight to scrapper?

[@MassivePanda1991]

Probably idk because it says on a website that these models are retired as if not going back it service so maybe.

[@lijiang2743]

I believe these buses are starting to come back starting this year in 2024.​@@MassivePanda1991

[@andreashragge3821]

:(

[@trevorharris6031]

There is a few for historic purposes. 200 series numbers will not be reused.

[@trevorharris6031]

These buses are officially retired and will not be going back into service

[@MassivePanda1991]

Will one of them become a historic vehicle and the rest will be scrapped?
