Welcome!

Welcome to TransferPoint's Blogger website. Here we will post information about transit fleet, provide construction updates to areas we venture often, and any possible charters we might do in the near future.

York Region Transit 401-412

Manufacturer: New Flyer Industries
Model: D40LF
Engine: Cummins ISL
Transmission: Voith D864.3

401-412 were delivered in 2004.

Divisions
401-408: Miller (Markham)
409-412: Can-Ar

History
The arrival of this series allowed more contractor equipment to retire, and increase service.

408 and 411 were used as the 2004 Holiday buses, and had a Holiday-themed wrap applied. The remnants from this wrap are still visible with the livery 'swoosh' overtop of the rear windows.


Recommended Sightings: 300, 301, 302, 303
Miller typically runs most of the lighter expresses with the 4xx series, and the easiest way to find them are at Finch. At Miller, they rarely go out for weekend service, and see occasional midday service. Can-Ar sends theirs out more for midday service, but they are still hard to find.
