Translink CMBC [Last Ever Run] 2006 NFI C40LFR | P3311 on 179 Buntzen Lake

End of the line.

This is the last ever service of Route 179 Buntzen Lake with a 2006 NFI C40LFR (P3311). Recorded yesterday, this trip marks the very last time these buses will serve Buntzen Lake — with the C40LFR fleet set to fully retire by December 2025.

The ride captures not just the scenic trip from Coquitlam Central Station to Buntzen Lake, but also a reflective moment: the driver shares history, stories, and a sad farewell to a bus model that has been part of Metro Vancouver for nearly two decades.
