401 1997-2001 Corbeil DRW / Ford E-450 diesel <25 passenger (cutaway) June 28th, 2011 #401 turning NB onto Lewis Estates Bvld. This bus was probably acquired used from a property in California based on the lack of black paint around the warning lights.

409 2004-2005 IC Bus CE-300 36 passenger November 2nd, 2008 #409 parked at West Edmonton Mall. I was a little surprised to find out that IC Bus offered the CE-300 (with the larger DT466E engine) in such a short bus!

411 2000-2003 Bluebird TC2000-FE 75 passenger October 4th, 2008 #411 in use as a Park N' Ride shuttle for an Edmonton Eskimos game. This bus is currently Golden Arrow's only transit-style unit operating in local service. Sister unit #412 (similar configuration, except with blue seats and a wheelchair lift) ran under contract out in Spruce Grove for quite some time before being returned and retired.

411 2000-2003 Bluebird TC2000-FE 75 passenger October 4th, 2008 Rear of #411.
