In 2016, Foothill Transit tested a Alexander Dennis Enviro500 double decker bus on the Silver Streak and passengers enjoyed it! Two years later in 2018, Foothill received a $1.4 million grant to purchase two all-electric Alexander Dennis Enviro500EV buses, which were built in partnership with Proterra which supplied the battery and power train technology. In addition, Foothill already has plenty of Proterra electric buses in their fleet, and these double deckers are part of Foothill Transit’s plan to go all-electric by 2030. These buses were built in Scotland and were originally supposed to enter service in 2019, but was later delayed to 2021, with the buses arriving in January and undergoing testing for several months before entering revenue service.
As of this week, the buses have finally made their debut as one of the two units, 3001, did a westbound trip on the Silver Streak on Tuesday, August 24 before returning to Arcadia yard for the rest of the day. They didn’t come out again until yesterday when I was checking TransSee and noticed that 3000 was on its way to Montclair TransCenter to possibly do another trip on the Silver Streak, which it did. I made my way up to El Monte Station to capture and ride one of those buses for the first time, not just for me but on YouTube as well since I’m the first transit fan to film one of these buses in service!
I filmed two versions of my ride along: an shorter iPhone version (this video) and another unedited version on my GoPro camera which was attached to a suction cup mount on the window.
