STRATHCONA COUNTY TRANSIT
1981 GMDD T6H-5307N #912-914, 917-918

Strathcona County Transit purchased three used 1981 T6H-5307Ns from BC Transit, Victoria Regional System, in November of 2000, and an additional two units in late 2003 / early 2004 . The first three were originally numbered 911-913, but after they had been repainted they became #912-914. These units were originally BC Transit #s 837, 843, and 856. Assuming that 911 was the bus that was renumbered, #912 is ex BC #843, #913 is ex BC #856, and 914 is ex BC #837. These buses did run for Strathcona County Transit in their BC Transit paint scheme for a time, minus BC decals of course. #917 is ex BC #? and #918 is ex BC #854. These buses were retired in the years leading up to 2011, upon the delivery of many Nova LFS models.
