A view inside the cab where a lot of work was being carried out to prepare them for work in the Coast Mountain Bus fleet. This included the company's communication system, ticket machines and other extras. The panel on the side of the staircase of 19402 had been removed to reveal an array of electrical connections which were being added to.

Returning to Vancouver in September 2023 the Enviros were more in evidence though absent from downtown. An effort had to be made to track them down. First up was 19429, part of the 2019 delivery and seen at Brighouse Station about to depart on the 301 to Newton Exchange. Brighouse is in Richmond and just to the south of the airport. The 301 treks east to Newton, just over an hour away and involves a fair bit of freeway driving at speed justifying the "express" tag.

The bus was parked up waiting to pull on to the stand which was separate from the other bus stands at Brighouse and poorly signposted from the Skytrain station.
