Southland Transportation Photos- Motorcoaches

Welcome to the Southland Transportation photo gallery for motorcoaches. Southland operates motorcoaches on daily weekday commuter services into Calgary from Cochrane and Okotoks just outside of Calgary. Southland also operates a service branded On It that was a trial transit service between Okotoks and South Calgary. In the summer months, Southland also operates service between Calgary and Banff. Additionally, Southland does provide charter services with their motorcoaches.

Southland operates a fleet of mostly Motor Coach Industries coaches including MCI 102DL3 and MCI D4505. Some Prevost H3-41 coaches are also part of Southland's fleet. The majority of Southland's fleet is made up of coaches that were once operated by Diversified Transportation, and previously other operators when they were new. In the past older MCI MC8, MC9 and MCI 96A3 (ex-Academy Bus Lines) have been operated. This service is currently (January 2012) operated by second hand MCI 102DL3 coaches. In the past MCI coaches such as some MC8 's and MC9's were used. As well handful of MCI 96A3 coaches that were second hand from Acadamy Bus Lines of New York City.
