Designline On Display Downtown


The Real

Recommended Posts


Two questions come to mind. 1. Can this bus be operated in the rain with the drivers window open without the Operator getting drenched (you need the window open because of reduced visibilty due to the shatter resistant material the TA has installed on the drivers' window).2. What the hell is the spoiler for?

depot that might get futuricstic bus RTS is : ( my guess is)

 

 

Ulmer Park Depot

Far Rockaway Depot

Maspeth Depot

Kingsbridge depot

Manhattanville depot

 

i am only taking a guess

 

None of those are getting it, The Bronx is currently pending. Michael J Quill is getting this.

There is no futuristic RTS......

 

If you mean the Designline Ecosaver IV Hybrids, the first 30 will go to MJQ, with another 30 probably going to either KB or WF if the test is successful. My bet is Kingsbridge.

1. . Micheal J. Quill depot recieving #3800 Orion7NG.

but what would they to do 1999 Nova bus #5100 - #5200 series

and where would they displaced their 1999 NOva bus

and which depot will they send to it to. If they recieve new bus.

 

Most likely MJQ will keep those RTSs, the TMCs are the ones being removed slowly. MJQ is getting 3800-3850, & losing some 8980s-8990s RTSs to West Farms, leaving a open hole of 40ft buses left.

A little too modern, that bus could pass off as a race car if it were the right size :eek: I guess the aerodynamic-nesss could help it use less energy to pick up speed. I'm just wondering what's the spoiler for? :confused:
