MTA ordering 90 NovaBUS LFSA buses

I just threw up :eek::confused:

 

I'm cleaning up for you.

 

Well to be frank, this bus does not have the greatest design. However, if it works well with SBS, then I don't mind at all.

 

I don't mind the rest of the bus. It's just that ugly rear end. But, if it works, so much the better.

 

Moving on...

 

Approximately how long would it be before we see these things on the streets?

Yes, they look sleek and have some 21st century look.

 

Well, that's your opinion.

 

I think you've got Swine Flu, ;).

 

You just brought the Swine Flu in your body, :D.

 

I know it haven't got the best design but it should work perfectly with +SBS+, :)!

 

Don't joke about that. It's a serious matter.

Nova > New Flyer

 

The D60HF's are NOT suited for SBS.

 

So if its not suited then why not drop the D60HFs off the Bx12 and returen em to a Local Bus route and have em run Novas.. Just saying tho:confused:

The D60HF's are best suited for the +SBS+......the ad wrap looks good on them.... RTS NovaBus on the Bx12.....not going to happen

I'm going to have to agree that the D60HFs arent suited for +SBS+. Sure they look good with the wraps & Gun Hill has been taking good care of those artics, in theory, those buses were not meant for any BRT style operations. The LFSA would actually be a significant improvement in terms of loading/unloading times. Though I much rather choose the Citaro G Artics, even though reports say that the MTA is interested in those buses.

 

Now if we had some 3 door D60/DE60LFRs or some of those NABIs, then things would be pretty good ( Just an opinion, dont go nuts )

 

Oh dear RTSs on the M15....those were good times. I miss those days. That was when they terminated right infront of the S.I Ferry Terminal along with the M1 and M6 instead of being sidelined across the street.

Why? These looks nice, it has these awesome

But, I don't think the rear looks ugly, it looks modern, sleek and agressive. And, this is perfect for SBS since, it looks a lot like a Track-Less Train.

That thing looks hot.

For our case, we would expect a white bus with a blue stripe. Simple MTA livery. It would be cool to wrap the entire bus with ads. If it worked on the train, why not the bus? Besides, everybody could see the ad.
