[HD] EXCLUSIVE Double Decker Front View of Route 394 White Rock Ctr Express
Right place at the right time. Not even 2 weeks into the year of 2024 and we get the catch of the year. This extremely rare occurrence happened in January 2020 as the fleet was in the recovery process after a snowstorm. This is a classic case of a bus (2019 Alexander Dennis Enviro500 #19403) used to provide the service rather than not having a bus available at all.
Later that month, appearances of double decker units occurred on the 640 in the middle of yet another snowstorm.
Route 394 is an express overlay to route 321 King George to White Rock/Surrey Central via Newton. It was introduced in 1997 to neutralize the cancellation of route 353 between Ocean Park and 22nd Street Station.
Please consider liking and subscribing. Cheers.

    Seeing this bizarre fleet operation, how many routes have proper double decker height clearance? The bus itself has a height of 4.13m, so adding a few percent of redundancy for the tires, every section needs to be 4.35m or higher for double decker to run.

      I will say that outside the Canada Line, certain corridors are better off: 406 (Railway) 410 (Cambie) are decent if you’re staying away from the city center. Drawbacks: going across town without going through the city center, and Ironwood gets messy when there is a Highway 99 accident Other than that, I can’t be any more specific.

    I definitely agree with a Langley Transit Centre being necessary to be built. Good video. It was interesting to see what they did with this route. Though, I believe adding enough buses to make a 15-minute frequency 15 hours a day (so it is in the FTN) was more important than to introduce 60-foot articulating buses. I don't like how the 84 had a cut in frequency during off-peak in exchange for larger buses.

    • @jmstransit
      @jmstransit Před měsícem

      Guess that point wasn’t made clear enough: Since January 2023 the 323 has qualified for FTN frequencies. The current schedule from 6am-10pm 7 days a week is every 15 minutes or more.

    • @jmstransit
      @jmstransit Před 2 měsíci

      I mean it's the busiest bus loop in western Canada and I don't think that's a behavior one would be 100% successful at fixing. If anything, I think the previous setup along wesbrook was fairly organized. Nobody was trying to cut across the road. I also think the centre barrier is doing a wonderful job at deterring people from crossing the west side of the loop instead of the curved fence path where the R4 is. I also never see anyone going to UBC for the sole purpose of changing buses compared to something like Phibbs Exchange or Newton Exchange. But that's just me.
