🚍 STM bus ride on the 36 route: Monk going east - on a Nova Bus LFSe short range electric bus ⚡

[@gmnewlook]

I have to go take a ride on an STM LFSe on the 36. Only ride I took on an LFSe was in 2015 the day after the CUTA-ACTU Trans-Expo. It took us around Old Montreal, was pretty nice. I had done the routing of the first horse tramway line from November 27 1861 on foot that morning.

I remember that. I didn't ride it at that time but when it came into service. It's very cool these buses

[@chrissymessytransit]

Never was on the 36 Electric bus yet. good video once Again.

[@SkyOfTheUniverse]

Thanks! It's worth a ride on

[@ryanhector7201]

Wow Great video ride on 39-902 I Really like these Novabus LFS-E Buses they are very silent

[@PaulMaltsev]

These buses are kinda rare since most of the buses on 36 are hybrids. By the way, this bus route is modified due to the bus network redesign, it now takes a fragment of the 78 Laureaudeau on Allard street.

[@SkyOfTheUniverse]

Yes true.

L'ambiance intérieure (son) est identique à celle d'un trolleybus. Merci pour ce petit voyage dans Montréal. The interior sounds are similar to a trolleybus (Electric wired bus). Thanks for this little trip in Montréal.👍

Oh wow! Have you seen the STM electric flyer buses? Ive seen them a lot

[@SkyOfTheUniverse]

Yeah I love them! They have been pulled out of service because an issue with their battery. Here is the story montrealgazette.com/news/local-news/stm-temporarily-takes-electric-buses-off-the-streets

Back in very familiar territory, Angrignon Park and along Monk Blvd. Sad to see the downturn in retail businesses along Monk as compared to the 1960s and 1970s when I spent a lot of time in this area.

[@SkyOfTheUniverse]

It has changed a lot over the years. It reminds me of a smaller version of The Main, Saint-Laurent Boulevard

[@GeorgeAdams-GA1953]

I never spent much time on St. Laurent Blvd. or the east end except for visiting my grandparents and uncles/ aunts who lived on 44th Avenue in Rosemont and nearby in St. Leonard. Before the Metro it was a long bus trip.

Why do the seats have different colours?

[@SkyOfTheUniverse]

I think because they are hard plastic and they change the colours with the seat designs sometimes.

[@v31.48]

@@SkyOfTheUniverse Ooh I see! Thanks!

[@AlexGetsAroundTO]

I really like the colours of that bus and design even though lots of Montrealers hate the newer ones (funny that they're manufactured right outside of Montreal). Toronto TTC doesn't have them but they do have the New Flyer XE40's just like the STM and STL.

[@SkyOfTheUniverse]

Yeah I like them, even if I'm in a minority maybe. Yeah the XR40s are popular

[@ryanhector7201]

I Think the RTL Should some Pointers from the STM and get the LFS-E and the New Flyer XE40 for their electric fleet series for Longueuil

[@Captures_JS]

2016’s have the green, 2019’s have the blue. There’s no engine sounds either…
