OC Transpo 5083: Random Beeping Sound. (What is it?)

[hyvahyva]

I've heard that kind of sound come from EDACS radios when the user's been paged. We have this goofy-ass EDACS system here where there's a long comms console on the dash with a 2x40 character VFD display (aqua color text) and like ten white buttons. It's obnoxiously loud and beepy. Do your buses have the same?

Also, TOTALLY loving those motor sounds

I was on a hybrid a while back and it was making a really loud noise while decelerating, not the normal hybrid noise though.

They need to get more minibuses - something like the Arboc Easy-on - for routes like the 123 which have really low ridership.

[newflyer800]

They do not plan on buying any minibuses for the future. The 123 will be a Hybrid Route.

if the beeping only came up when he turned, its probably either traction control or his turning signal prevost have that beep when they raise the extra set of wheels on a turn
