The first two of the four New Flyer DE40LFR buses are numbered 6001 and 6002. They are powered by a Cummins ISL engine with roof top batteries, managed by the GM-Allison hybrid diesel-electric drive (Parallel system). The buses arrived in early 2007 and went into service during the Spring of that year. #6002 was later upgraded to include more ammenities and was crowned as the platnium ETS bus. It is used at ETS PR events.
