Calgary Transit's first order of T6H5305's were delivered in 1969.  Buses 624-629 were used as painted advertising buses for different companies.  624 was painted for Re/Max, 625 was the Shell gas station bus, 626 was painted for Campbell's Soup, 627 was painted for the Calgary Herald, 628 was painted for Pink Insulation, and 629 was painted for the Talking Yellow Pages.  Most of these buses were retired and scrapped, however, 625, 627, and 629 were sold to the Town of Cold Lake, 626 was sold to Westerhaug Bus Lines in Yorkton, SK, 630 was sold to Air Canada in Toronto for use at the airport, and 635 and 636 were sold to St Albert Transit as 809 and 810.  These buses were the last ones delivered to Calgary Transit in the old seafoam green and oyster white livery.  All were powered by the Detroit Diesel 6V71 engine and the Allison VH9 transmission.
