Riding on Winnipeg Transit 717 (2008 D40LFR) on Route 60 Pembina 

the first i saw those new seats was back in August of 2021 some of them still have there old seats

Back when we refurbished them. The early refurbished 700s didn’t get them like 742 765 and a few others then 701 731 had a refurbish with the white front as tests I believe. Those buses had the old seats when they returned after refurbished. Since that most of the 700s have the new seats. Even some LFs have them. 247 277 and I believe there’s a few others
