EDMONTON TRANSIT SYSTEM
2013 ElDorado Passport HDs #s 92-97  

For the sake of finally replacing the remaining ELF buses, ETS received another five ElDorado Passports in early 2013. Because of the discontinuation of the GMC / Chevrolet C5500 chassis, these buses feature International Maxxforce 7 chassis. These were also the first ETS community buses delivered with air brakes. I believe ElDorado refers to this updated model of Passport as "Passport HD." As of mid-2018, all of these buses are retired, having been replaced by the 2000-series Vicinity units.


Thumbnail Bus # Date Description
92 April 29th, 2013 92 turning left onto 104ave WB from 124st NB as a shuttle bus for the 2013 104ave / Stony Plain Road bridge refurbishment detour. All of the routes which normally run down this stretch of road (2, 109, 111, 112...) were detouring down 102ave for the duration of the summer, which led to the creation of a temporary shuttle route to serve the affected neighbourhoods. The shuttle route was replaced by an on-call van service shortly after due to low ridership.
