EDMONTON TRANSIT SYSTEM
2011 ElDorado Passports #s 34-45  

ETS recieved an additional 12 ElDorado Passports in 2011. Despite the fact that the GMC / Chevrolet C5500 chassis was discontinued in 2009, ElDorado still managed to scrape together enough of them to complete this order! As a result, there are a few spotting differences between the 12 buses. #45 is the most obvious, having single sealed-beam headlights in place of the quad-light setup found on all of the other Passports. It also has a slightly different grille, which lacks the center chrome bar. Other than that, these buses are very similar to the 2010 deliveries. As of mid-2018, all of these buses are retired, having been replaced by the 2000-series Vicinity units.
