Ok, so its not really a "Rutgers" bus. Its actually an Academy Setra, #1717. As you can on the bus, it was used for the Rutgers Faculty Traveling Seminar a while back.

 

These pictures are actually from about three weeks ago. I was on a bus heading downtown JC, and seen that bus going the other way around Medical Center. I got off immediately the next stop and 1717 went exactly where I thought it was going and that is Old Colony Square for break.

 

Enjoy!

Nice pics!! The (NYCT) should test one of those.

Thanks! And yes they should. If they tested the Citaro, hell, test a Setra now.

 

Nice shots, I've always wanted to ride one of those buses.
Thanks! Those buses are great, I've been one them once.

Too expensive, and possibly to tall for the Brooklyn Battery Tunnel. Van-Hool T2145 barely fits through that tunnel........

 

MCI D4500 roughly $350,000-$400,000. Mercedes about $550,000........ That is why Academy charged $1200 for a day for those buses to be used locally. Alot more for OTR long trips...... It is a nice bus, and i did get to sit in the drivers seat of one, at Giants stadium. I was working for Campus then, and Academy brought in the opposing team with the Setra buses.......
