Forward to October 2014 and hybrid 2753 is seen in the city's Transit Tunnel. The Tunnel was opened in 1990 and served by dual mode Breda buses which used overhead electrical power in the tunnel, with diesel power available elsewhere. It is not known if the New Flyer hybrid buses could be switched to electric mode when in the tunnel. In 2009 light rail joined the tunnel, the tracks being clearly visible. The Sound Transit operated line links the CBD to the Airport.With redevelopment in prospect buses abandoned the tunnel in 2019 though the light rail remains with its track extended to Chinatown.
