Used fleet
Because the Province does not rely on public funding for buses, Regina Transit has acquired used buses from other transit agencies. But instead of painting them in its official livery, Regina Transit has decided to keep them in their original colors and place its logo on the rear windows. There are 33 used buses in its fleet.[1]
