SCT took delivery of an additional six GMDD T6H-5307N buses, #s 869-874, in 1980. Originally painted in the blue + yellow Edmonton Transit scheme (except for the logos), these buses were all repainted into newer SCT paint schemes. Some were also refitted with various types of Bailos LED destination signs in place of their original rollsigns. These buses were retired in the years leading up to 2011, upon the delivery of many Nova LFS models.
