Article of course has errors as it states these would be the first LF buses on BC routes which is ridiculous as there are many C40 LF running, as well as older Orion LF hybrids sent over from transit. |

As far as I know, the only BC artics are ex NYC high floors, so that would make sense. Leave it to the press to leave out a key word or phrase. Thanks for re printing that. |
