ION - Waterloo Region's Light Rail Transit
(09-04-2016, 12:35 PM)timc Wrote: You can also find some photos here. There weren't any Old Look buses made in the 1970s; the GM buses from that era were New Look. Kitchener Transit buses from the 1970s were silver, red/orange, and white. The silver colour was dropped in the 1980s. I think if you go back to the 1960s and early 1970s you will find a sort of aqua and white colour. Although I did find this beauty (bus #28?) which seems to be a special Centennial red-and-white edition.

Thanks for the link!  Looks like I was wrong with the pale yellow, it was white and (blueish) green.  Those buses were indeed built in the 1960s or earlier, but Kitchener Transit was still using them (in their original colours) in the late 1970s.

Now back to the regularly-scheduled ION discussion! Big Grin
