The '95 Phantoms are the only ones that are still being used in normal service out of the older buses on the Peninsula. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rmcconnell 1 #3 Posted July 30, 2009 HRT still runs the Flxibles? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
shadowrider257 0 #4 Posted July 30, 2009 no, they were using the Flxibles as school buses for middle and high schools, but the City of Hampton decided to use their own school buses starting this coming school year so the Flxibles are very likely no longer going to be used.
