@motocomms @CalgaryPolice Criminals are not known to be the smartest individuals on earth, so it's not really surprising.

@plainrocktweets @cinemassacre To be fair, after 200 some odd episodes of doing this, he's going to eventually run out of shitty games that have funny things to say about. I can certainly understand why he's scraping the bottom of the barrel here

@calgarytransit Route 422 skipped the stop northbound on Varsity Estates Drive at Varsity Estates Place NW. I see the bus turn off of Varsity Estates View (west leg) instead of doing the routing its actually supposted to do. Can you please tell the operator to not skip stops?

@the_transit_guy The Calgary Tower. It's way too expensive to go up to the top, and you could easy find another random building in downtown to go get the same view for free.

@Rudy49er @BCTransit Don't be blaming BCTransit here. Blame the contractor, First Transit. They're the one giving drivers shitty wages.

@JonathanParks86 @calgarytransit Well, just think about this. If there is a train blocking 7 Avenue, there is physically no way for a bus to squeeze by. Also CPS needs room to do their investigation.

@shut_up_mary @Souluxy @calgarytransit I don't think you are understanding. As Transit enthusiasts we are not taking pictures of the operator, but the bus instead. You need to calm down please because it's not worth any of our time to argue over nothing. Let us enjoy our hobby please.

@shut_up_mary @Souluxy @calgarytransit We are just a bunch of transit enthusiasts who enjoy photographing and capturing transit buses. We are not taking a photo of the bus operator, we are taking a picture of the bus itself. The fact the bus operator is even there is purely coincidental.

@ctrain_rider That's the Calgary Transit Way!

@brysonc_yyc @calgarytransit Yes as I mentioned earlier a friend of mine spotted it at big rig a few months ago. So honestly hard to know for sure, but I have a feeling it will eventually be repaired.

[Technology Spotlight @TechSpotlight_]

@brysonc_yyc @calgarytransit Asking some CT people I know, it has not been decided if the bus is for sure done or not. There have been buses in the past with similar, or even worse damage taking many years to be fixed and put back on the road (a notable example is 7792 which was a fire victim.)

@brysonc_yyc @calgarytransit The Calgary Transit twitter account does not have access to the bus retirements, etc. Best bet would be to check the CPTDB for any future updates as me nor anyone else has heard anything thusfar. Last time I heard it was still at Big Rig.

@unclejohnCC @calgarytransit Because it smells like ass.

@Draco74403 @calgarytransit @CalgaryPolice This situation early in the morning before service started. So thus the trains were only able to run in the sections where there are train facilities (the northeast and the south legs). There are no train facilities in the northwest and west leg so they werent able to go there.

@calgarytransit 8314 on the 28 deer run failed to serve the stop at the Deer Lane Road Terminal. Now I have to wait for the next one.

@calgarytransit Might want to bring in unit #8273 to the body shop. On the passenger side of the bus, on the panel in between the doors (where the ad is) there is quite a lot of visible damage. (see photo). Thought I'd bring this to your attention. Thanks!
