    BUS HISTORY ASSOCIATION 2019 CONVENTION Ottawa ON and Gatineau QC – Wednesday, June 5th to Saturday, June 8th All photos by Kevin Nicol, unless otherwise indicated The Bus History Association (BHA) convention was held in Ottawa this year. It had been 16 years (2003) since the BHA held their convention there. As with the past 3 Canadian conventions (Montreal, Quebec City, Vancouver), Mario Seneviratne organized a fan trip on the day before the start of the convention. Société de transport de l’Outaouais (STO) is one of the few remaining transit systems in Canada that still operates high floor vehicles (not including cutaways). STO, along with Coast Mountain Bus Company (Orion V suburbans), Sarnia (1 Orion V) and Cold Lake (2 Classics as back up) are the only systems that still operate the venerable buses. Their days are clearly numbered though except possibly for Vancouver where they have a few years left. STO still operates MCI Classics that formerly operated in Calgary. Bus # 9136 was chosen for the charter which is ex-Calgary # 5106. The charter started at Terrasses de la Chaudière in Gatineau. BHA members had to take regular transit to get to the start location and most rode OC Transpo route 97 from the host hotel of Hilton Garden Inn and Suites – Ottawa Airport. Upon arriving at Mackenzie King bridge, we alighted route 97 and transferred to route 44 for the ride to Gatineau. People who arrived early were able to take many photos. OC Transpo services Terrasses and one of the new Nova LFS buses arrived during our time there.
