STRATHCONA COUNTY TRANSIT
Random Cutaway Buses #500?-502

Strathcona County Transit I took photos of the 3 buses below in the early 2000's. Two were at the Sherwood Park Transit Centre, while one was passing by the temporary transfer point on Fir St when the Sherwood Park Transit Centre was being built. There is a photo of 501 decaled for Parkwood Transportation who was the contractor for SCAT until 2005 or so. It's entirely possible all of these buses were being operated by them, but it is kind of strange that they be sitting in bus bays at the Sherwood Park Transit Centre. I can't see any signs indicating they were working regular Strathcona County Transit routes. The bus I recall as being 502 is decaled in Strathcona colours which further fuels the mystery. I am leaning towards that these buses were in SCAT service. I have spotted these buses lurking in mine, and others photos at the Wye Road Transit Centre.

Description

500? December 29, 2002 What could conceivably be 500 at the Sherwood Park Transit Centre. It is on a Ford chassis older than 501 and 502.
501 December 27, 2000 501 at the Sherwood Park Transit Centre. Could be a route 409? That looks like it was added on to the sign so it might have been a new route. This bus around 1997 was being operated by Parkwood Transportation in SCAT service.
502 June 2000 502, or what I seem to recall is 502, passing by the temporary transfer point on Fir St. Clearly in Strathcona colours, but no other markings.
