CALGARY TRANSIT
Twin Coach 41S #201-210
Ex-BC Hydro Coaches

Calgary Transit purchased 10 second-hand Twin Coach 41S's from BC Hydro in December 1965 for use as school charters & extras to help expand the service to the city.  These buses were all brought to Calgary in their BC Hydro Cream colors and were put in service with that livery until they were later repainted to the Seafoam Green and Oyster White livery.  The 10 buses were numbered from 201-210 and were built in 1948, except one of them that was built in 1949.  All were retired between 1968 and 1971 and were sold off for scrap.  A couple of them were still in operational condition.  Six out of ten of these buses were found between 1994 and 1999, found throughout Calgary and Southern Alberta.
