2007 New Flyer D40LF 7981-8015

In 2007, Calgary Transit took delivery of 35 New Flyer D40LF's. These buses were built to a new set of Calgary specifications. These buses feature shell seats with patterned padding, similar to the 2006 Winnipeg spec. order. Inner wall heating and motion sensor rear doors are included on this order as well. Like recent orders, the buses have Luminator LED destination signs and a Cummins ISL engine. These buses feature the new dual display Allison control panel on the driver's dashboard, the 6 speed version of the B400R (B400R6) is the transmission for the 2007 order. These buses were placed into service without stripes, they were painted in white base with Calgary Transit fleet numbers and decals. Bus #7981 had stripes applied as it entered service, meanwhile the remaining units did not receive their stripes till the winter of 2007-08.
