3001
3001 BC Transit did have the prototype BC Gas TDH5303 - #3001. It was in
fact the first experimental dual-fuel vehicle.
The CNG was injected into the air intake while diesel went in
through
a much smaller than normal injector. The bus started on 100% diesel
until the intake temperature was high enough to ensure the
CNG/diesel mixture would vaporize. The diesel would then drop to
about
5% and it served only to lubricate engine seals. Other buses run on
100% CNG suffered from seal failures becaus...

TransLink puts alt-fuel buses into service
TransLink has put two test buses, powered by a blend of hydrogen gas, recovered from an industrial process and
compressed natural gas (CNG) into regular service carrying passengers.
The buses, converted 1998 New Flyer coaches as part of TransLink's Bus Demonstration Project, have been going through
evaluation for the past two years. Now, they are in service in the Coquitlam/Port Coquitlam area, carrying fare-paying

Comparison of Modes
Adding up to a cleaner environment
Transit Exchange, July/Aug. 1998
Both trolleys and Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) buses play their part in reducing pollution in the Greater Vancouver region. Along with diesel buses, they make up most of the BC Transit fleet. How do trolleys and CNG buses rate pollution wise? And how does each of these technologies compare in cost? After covering diesel buses in the February issue of Transit Exchange, we now tackle the rest of the fleet.
Trolley buses: in ...

Mayors resisting TransLink reform
By Jeff Nagel Jun 15 2007
A number of regional politicians are vowing to fight transportation minister Kevin Falcon’s radical remake of TransLink every step of the way.
Since the required legislation didn’t pass the Legislature this spring, they will start by refusing to join the transportation minister’s plan to get an early start on work to select a new, unelected professional board of directors.
Falcon says the reforms will go ahead, with or ...
