GO Transit's Wrapped Coaches

There is no sign of any abatement in GO Transit's enthusiasm with the bilevel coaches. Another 16 were ordered from Bombardier in June 2000. Here we see one, in an advertisement wrap, at Exhibition Station. Photo by Daniel Garcia. |
As the technology to wrap buses, streetcars and even subway cars improved, agencies such as GO Transit took notice. GO Transit's bilevel coaches may well be one of the largest vehicles to be changed into a rolling billboard, but as the trains travelled past such congested highways as the Queen Elizabeth Way and the 401, the lure proved irresistable.
As always, railfans were on the case, logging GO Transit's rolling billboards...
