RED DEER TRANSIT
1988 New Flyer D40 #506, 509

Red Deer Transit didn't rebuild their last 3 GM New Looks. Instead they went looking for 3 used Classics, and ended up with 2 ex St. Augustine, exx AC Transit 1988 D40's. The buses are used only on school runs, and are painted in the St. Augustine colours which are still quite fresh on the buses. The fleet numbers are ones that were reserved for GM rebuilds. All were retired by early 2011.
