The 9300s that went to GA, IMHO should have gone to QV for # order purposes and to send the 9500s to GA, as well as to send the small batch of 9600s to Ulmer. Can't win them all I guess.

 

There is no rule that says buses must be assigned numerically. All accounting of buses and their performance is done via computer.

 

Lifetime mileage has a lot to do with where old buses are assigned.

Correct. The bus wasn't the cause of anything, but due to the impact of the two cars, the red car heading northbound on East 5th bounced into the front of 9570 (bus was sitting still since he saw the black car doing 70+) causing some damage I believe, but the operator is fine.

 

Not a pretty sight.
