Dennis Trident in Kelowna, BC

Dennis Trident﹐係加拿大BC省唔止Victoria有﹐連內陸城市Kelowna都有~~

BC Transit係2002年除左引入16架俾Victoria之外﹐仲有3架分左俾Kelowna﹐編號為0251-0253﹐現時差唔多乜線都有機會見到﹐但主要係行走Downtown Kelowna (Queensway Exchange) - Orchard Park - Rutland既三大路線9﹐10 & 11~~

0251



0253

I'm wondering, how can these buses by pass the "buy canadian" standard set by the government, cause US have such standard too, where 60% of the bus has to be assembly/ made in US, this is why u can sometimes see new flyer bodies truck across the boarder into US without running gear/ seats/ etc...

Also, how can the LV's Enviro by pass such legistlation.

I am not suprise that the Enviro pass the buy US ACT, as there seats, Mirrors, Engines, Electrical system is made in the US.

I have been told there is also an exception if there is no such product Made in the US.

"Also, how can the LV's Enviro by pass such legistlation."

CAT did not use Federal money to buy Enviro 500 indeed, according to general manager of RTC.

In addition, those double deckers on the deuce route (strip local) have roughly 150-180% fare recovery ratio. So say it is one of very few exceptions in the country that agency can make money by the service.

ya, even though in BC Transit, they didn't use the money from the Federal government, but they're using the money from provincial govenment (coz' BC Transit is own by Government of BC) to order Darts, Tridents and Enviros~~

究境係城巴機場線抄佢，定佢抄城巴呢？或者係這個設計係公開既呢？？

後者(佢抄城巴),城巴個design是自己搵設計師做,accoring to 97定98年香港巴士年鑑
