Hi Pat,
oct 11
389/15(15-12, rode, two bug strollers in front),
Drivers are no longer willing to enforce the fold your stroller rule. Why
should every passenger be inconvenienced and their safety risked because of
this?
I'm waiting for the first panic stop sending the stroller rocketing into the
front bulkhead of the bus. THEN you'll see some action at Transit!

That sux. I always marvel at these and wonder how many riders they'll lose when
they lower the floor.

them putting it on 53),
It's possible. Transit has lots of gypsy runs that do just one trip right from
the garage into downtown and then go on to do any number of other routes and
runs. Back when I was in transit, they took great pains to eliminate as much
deadheading as possible. Not so at Winnipeg Transit! Just about every rush-hour
extra is a gypsy, and the amount of deadheading involved is just enormous.
Could it have done that route for just one trip? Why would it say that in the
number box?

Did you send this to me already? If not, may I please see it? Where did you
take the photo? It was leaning to driver's side last week. Not sure why that
happens.

392/48,(seats full)
Wow. Sounds like a perfect bus for this run.
398/40
676/15(15-12, rode, sure will miss the heated walls),
Heated walls? You seem to do really well to get the HFs you like.
858/32(full seats people standing)
Hopefully none of those pax sneezes, otherwise they'll scrap 858. Mosquito
season is over. I guess that's why 858 survived.
Thanks for the report. My notes have been updated.
Manny
