From there, we had a tour of the STCUM's newest facility, the LaSalle Garage, which opened in 1995, following the closure of two of the system's oldest garages, the Namur Garage on Jean-Talon, and the St.-Henri Garage on St.-Antoine St. The Quebec Public Transit Heritage Foundation was kind enough to make two of their restored New Look buses available for us to see at the garage, the first of which is 14-008, shown here in the livery the old CTCUM used when this bus first entered service in 1972, and was later painted into the current blue and grey livery when it was introduced in 1974. The QPTHF has not only restored this bus, but is in the process of turning it into a mini museum of Montreal transit history.
