Is 501 the only one remaining in Kingston? Presumably that would need to arrive reasonably soon, too, if the December revenue service is to become reality.

510, 514, and 513 are also still there.

No, it was 512 that was sitting there rotting waiting to be picked up. Somehow they got it here over a weekend (instead of the usual ~1 week) - my mistake.

Er - never mind... somebody just saw the next one pass through Pickering. Looks like they have a new run, with vehicles leaving Friday afternoons and showing up here on the following Mondays.

So that leaves only 510 and 514 (both with the FIE install in progress?) in Kingston, plus the 501.

Has anyone heard any update on the 501 update/upgrade/rebuild status?

The only thing I've heard is it'll be last to come back.

Probably at the next council meeting November 14, 2018 is when the report comes out.
