EDMONTON TRANSIT SYSTEM
1973 T6H4523N #26-35
In 1973 ETS received it's last 35' buses, 10 T6H4523N model buses, from GMDD. They were the last ETS bus to have a push bar, single stream rear door. These buses were probably purchased to replace the C-36 CCF/Brill buses in use over the High Level Bridge. These buses have been used
in dial a bus services, and in their last 2 years of service they could be found on the routes #67, 80, 89, 108, 121, 122, 123, 124.
They were also used during high demand times on the route out to the Evergreen Mobile Home Park. By 1999 most had been retired. It is possible #29 my have been in service a bit longer than the rest since it was sitting outside Westwood Garage for a number of months, at least it was the last to be put into the Ferrier Compound. #33 was the first to be retired after it was involved in an accident. #27 was the next and the rest were more or less retired after that.
