Thank you for showing up, and watching this video!
Today, I took a very ride on Ex- Mississauga Transit #0556, which is now known as Durham Region Transit #1008. Currently, it is part of a lease, coming from Mississauga Bus Group of Companies within the order of: #1007 - #1015. These 8 buses are retired Mississauga Transit New Flyer D40LF / D40LFR buses.
#0556 is powered by a Cummins ISL EPA2004 engine, rated at 280HP, with a Turbocharged 6 cylinder engine, which is paired with a Voith DIWA.3E (D864.3E), 4 speed transmission, with a retarder. #0556 features 37 American Seating Model 6468 seating, air powered door motors and it rides on MAN axles.
This video was filmed on route 916 Rossland PULSE, northbound towards Conlin / Harmony. I forgot where it started, and ended. However, it was a long ride, and I was having a lot of fun, with my friend, ‪@Train_and_bus_fan‬ , who would be filming as well. Route 916 services from the Pickering GO Station (Pickering Pkwy) to the bus loop at Conlin / Harmony, using primarily Rossland Rd to serve passengers.
