Translink 2006 New Flyer E40LFR

Try out the next-gen trolleybuses operated by Translink, the transportation authority of the Greater Vancouver Area! These state-of-the-art New Flyer E40LFR trolleybuses are 100% emission free and produce very little noises when running. They will be replacing the aging Flyer trolleybuses in Vancouver.

Those New Flyer E40LFR Buses that Vancouver is getting they sound 100% awesome pieces of Art.

I like this bus driver, he talks a lot and is very informative. = )

[@eddy1210]

I love them! The nicest thing is the power steering :-)) I like the way they accelerate and the very cool sounds they make. My one criticism is the fact that some of them jerk when going through the insulators but that's a software problem that has to do with the inverter losing power momentarily.

[@eddy1210]

Hi Jamie, that's the inverter that converts the DC overhead power to AC. It makes this sound just before turning off (decelerating) and just as you start up and accelerate. It's a cool sound these new trolleys have. The new buses have a/c motors so they need to convert the d/c overhead to a/c to run the bus. I'm the driver in the video. BTW are you Jamie I know from automaticwasher website that owns the new Miele washer?

[@agitatorjamie]

Fascinating!!! What is that sound that comes on around 1:13? Almost sounds like a noise a jet plane would make in preperation for taking off...

[@agitatorjamie]

I am indeed from AWO and I did just get a Miele washer! One of my other fascinations is buses! However, these are much harder to collect, but I do intend to have a least one bus when I'm older, as soon as I can, I plan on getting a commercial liscense!

lol this driver talks so much, hes cool ;]

[@justinm.1]

BakuganExedra I think it’s because the guy recording this was like “can you talk in my video?” Lol

[@tibs851]

bus drivers are not supposed to help people with strollers, wheelchairs or bikes. something goes wrong, people sue. free country and all. that's why i stopped helping anyone. sad when you do good and it gets tossed in your face.
