The second hand buses from Calgary and Ottawa are long retired. All buses on the fleet are New Flyer with variations of the same engine. The older buses on the fleet don't have the problematic emissions control systems of the newer buses. The oldest buses on the fleet are 30' low floor buses, for which they haven't found a suitable replacement.
