DOB2RTO Posted April 10, 2011 Share #2 Posted April 10, 2011 I am an articulated man, so the answer is obvious......... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D.J. Posted April 10, 2011 Share #3 Posted April 10, 2011 The seating in LFSAs are better Plus the way MTA painted the LFSA is better than the LFS soooo LFSA it is! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SevenEleven Posted April 10, 2011 Share #4 Posted April 10, 2011 The LFSA is better in my opinion. Those roof flairs ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mysterious2train Posted April 10, 2011 Share #5 Posted April 10, 2011 The LFSA for me. Dat propulsion...! Unless the LFS has the same propulsion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trainfan22 Posted April 10, 2011 Share #6 Posted April 10, 2011 The LFSA for me.Dat propulsion...! Unless the LFS has the same propulsion. 8016-8089 has the same propulsion as the LSFA's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Broadway Local Posted April 10, 2011 Author Share #7 Posted April 10, 2011 8016-8089 has the same propulsion as the LSFA's. And 8015 too! :tup: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DOB2RTO Posted April 10, 2011 Share #8 Posted April 10, 2011 I just went to youtube, and heard and seen the LFS and LFSA. Not for nothing, the new Allison tranny sounds way better, and smoother than the ZF. It sounds more "American", and less "European". If the LFSA had that Allison tranny, it would be my near fave bus. But the bus in my signature is that bus.......... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Novabus 5000 Posted April 10, 2011 Share #9 Posted April 10, 2011 The Novabus LFS. I like the Decal scheme, plus the SBS+ Scheme looks crowded on the LFSA. I cast my vote for the LFS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
St Louis Car 09 Posted April 10, 2011 Share #10 Posted April 10, 2011 My vote goes to the LFS-A.I like the reverse seats in ther back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DOB2RTO Posted April 11, 2011 Share #11 Posted April 11, 2011 My vote goes to the LFS-A.I like the reverse seats in ther back. I think the seating arrangement that STM of Canada, uses on their NovaBus LFSA, would have been better. More room to pass by one another......

Cait Sith Posted April 11, 2011 Share #12 Posted April 11, 2011 Comparing a 40fter to a 62fter, bad idea. Lots of differences between them. Which one would I choose? Neither, there are things that I like and dislike about them. On the 40fters, the 8001-8014 batch has the Allison Transmission which offers a smooth ride. 8015-8089 along with the LFS Artics have different ZF transmissions which still makes the bus jerk around after a small tap on the brakes. When it comes to seating, the 40fters win by a mile. If the LFS artics had the seating arrangement like the 40fters did in the front section, we'd be able to get in and out of them artics without having to fight our way out of there. It made sense for the LFSs to have less seats than other low floors so they can improve on the passenger flow in terms of standees. This has long plagued the low floor buses in general. Looks? Tie game. They both look really good. The new scheme on the 40fters really work with them buses while 10 of the 62fters have the straight stripe going through the front. The roof flairs on the LFS Artics make them look rugged while the 40fters maintain their originality. Overall? Neither are better than the other, they both have their flaws regardless of how they look, spec'd, ride and more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nycbusfan Posted April 11, 2011 Share #13 Posted April 11, 2011 8016-8089 has the same propulsion as the LSFA's. IIRC The LFSA's actually have ZF Ecomat 4's while the LFS' have ZF Ecolife. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bus Guy Posted April 11, 2011 Share #16 Posted April 11, 2011 LFSA, it's speced and looks better then the LFS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AlexLy Posted April 12, 2011 Share #18 Posted April 12, 2011 I like both of them... and also the rest of their models (Nova Bus). I grew up with them during my entire life! Especially with the original Nova LFS! So, I can't decide... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
