A couple of double-decker buses are parked in the Thunder Bay Transit yard.
They are owned by the British company Alexander Dennis Ltd., whose vice-president tells us they are being driven to Vancouver but developed a minor problem that needs to be fixed.
Stephen Walsh says the heating system broke down and to “make the driver’s life a little more comfortable” for the remaining journey out west they decided to stop in Thunder Bay to make those repairs.
A company mechanic is expected in the city on Tuesday to help fix the problem.
The buses originated in southern Ontario where they were built.
