Bus repeatedly rams other bus to move it off train tracks.. Calgary Transit in Action

A bus broke down on the train tracks and another bus comes in and starts playing bumper bus with it to move it. The other bus’s air brakes had lost their compression so the brakes were on full (note the brake lights are on in the other bus) Decided to get to school extra early and lo and behold the train that should have gotten me to the university at 7:20 was delayed for over an hour due to a bus breaking down on one side of the tracks at 14st NW. After another bus failed to ram the bus from its position and a mechanic failed to fix the bus they brought in the heavy weapon. Enjoy.

A scan of a postcard, sent to me by a friend… This shows Calgary, ca. 1968 or 1969. On the left is Prince’s Island (yet to be built into a park maybe?), of course the Bow River, and the bridge over Memorial Drive hasn’t been built yet…
