No apologies for featuring another Canadian Alexander Dennis Enviro500MMC this week as the second, 19402, of Coast Mountain Bus' new buses looks stunning in their colours. Two of the first batch were delivered some months ago and neither has yet to enter service. This one was seen parked in the yard at Richmond depot, from where it is planned to work the 620 Express link to the Tsawwassen Ferry to Victoria Island along with the other thirty due imminently. The 620 is currently worked by New Flyer Xcelsior artics with regular standing loads and duplication, especially in the summer when the ferry crossing is very popular. The Xcelsior buses - which are relatively new - will ulimately displace the Orion V dual purpose units, but not directly. The Enviros will also work routes 301 and 555 with a further 25 on order for a year's time. Looking inside 19402 it was still being fitted out with on board computer systems for fare collection, stop announcements, etc. They will also be the first buses in the fleet equipped with USB charging points.
