In 1977 ETS received 18 D800B buses, #841-858 from Flyer Industries located in Manitoba. These buses probably operated out of Ferrier garage most of there service life which ended in 1994/95. After retirement #854 was kept as an historic bus and the rest were sold to a scrap yard in eastern Edmonton. In January 1999 there were still a number of them there. By May 2000 that number was down to 3: #842, 846, and 847. It is doubtful any are left now.
Apparently 3 were sold from the scrap yard for use as greenhouses.
