M-NF-3 Five of the first ex-Vancouver Flyer 901/2s at the garage where they will be stored until refurbished for service, probably in about four months. Photo by Osvaldo González and Jorge Guevara. 5 DEC 2008. Note that the date on the photo is wrong. Most likely due to a bug in the camera.

M-NF-2799 Ex-Vancouver NF 901/2 2799 being towed at the warehouse owned by EPTM (see below). The photo was probably taken by Osvaldo González, though not noted. 5 DEC 2008.

Note: the first trolley unloaded NF 901/2 2919. The trucking company hauling them has twelve trucks to haul the trolleys from San Antonio to Mendoza. The will be making eight round trips to truck in all the trolleys. The haul should be done sometime in January. At least for now, the vehicles are being stored in a warehouse owned or leased by EPTM (the provincially-owned trolleybus system) in the Guaymallén district, in the northeastern part of Mendoza. This is several kilometers away from the trolleybus depot/garage.

M- Mendoza Flyer E901/2 2943 along side M12. 20 FEB 2009.

M- An unidentified early model trolley for Mendoza. Photographer and date unkown. Courtesy of Trolebuses Mendocinos. I suspect that this trolley was being used for training, since the jpeg is named "Mendoza-cocheescuela" which can be loosely translated as 'coach school'.

M-01-01 Flyer E901/2 01. The original Vancouver number is not known. The roll signs have not been replaced. The colour is this vehicle is purple. There is confusion here because the number of this trolley is 01 as are the trolleys in the next photos. At this time, it is not known why three of them are umbered 01. Photographer unknown. 11 MAR 2009. Courtesy of Trolebuses Mendocinos.

M-01-3 Flyer E901/2 "01". The colour of this trolley is red and is definitely not the same as the one above.. Photographer unknown. 11 MAR 2009. Courtesy of Trolebuses Mendocinos.

M-02 Flyer E901/2 "01". This appears to be the normal colour (blue) of the older Mendoza fleet. This is the third trolley to be numbered "01" (see the above two photos). Photographer unknown. 11 MAR 2009. Courtesy of Trolebuses Mendocinos.
