The TDH-5303 replaced the TDH-5301 as the 40' long 102" wide bus in 1963, and ETS received their first 20 TDH-5303's in 1964. These buses have many spotting differences between a TDH-5301 with the most obvious being the tailgate, and marker lights, though a TDH-5303 in Winnipeg was recently fitted with a TDH-5301 marker light! Furthermore the TDH-5303 doesn't have the raised part of the body below the passenger windows, like a TDH-5301 had. Some of these buses are suspected to have been retired in the mid 1980's and into the early 1990's. The last ones in service were 480 and 490. And number of these buses went to Canadian Consolidated Salvage in 1997 or 1998. #480 went to Canadian Consolidated Salvage in 2000, while 490 still sits in the Ferrier Compound. #482 was found in a storage yard in south Edmonton, converted to a motorhome. I don't think the bus is still there now though. An interesting fact about 480 is that once in its life it had a TDH-5301 tailgate! This was changed though before the bus was retired.
