Canadian Premier Charters Photos

Welcome to the Canadian Premier Charters gallery for the Christmas charter that was held on December 23rd, 2004 in Calgary, Alberta.Newly declaed bus #332, which was Red Deer Transit #7118, 1970 General Motors T6H-5305 "New Look" transit bus. This was Red Deer Transit's first "New Look" style bus along with #7119. #7118 was retired in 1990 and brought back to service for about a year in October 1996. The bus was then sold to a private owner in November of 1997.In 2004, Canadian Premier bought this bus in 2004. As seen in the photos, the bus still retains its fleet number of #7118. A Red Deer Transit roller style detination sign remains on the bus. So far the bus has not been repainted and retains it's Red Deer Transit paint scheme. However the passenger seats and driver seats have both been changed out from the original Red Deer style. The bus is powered by a Detroit Diesel 6V71N engine with a Allison VS2-6 2 speed/with overdrive automatic transmission.

The below photos are displayed in the order they were taken.
