Also, two 2006 Orion VII OG CNGs #2640 and #2643 were on the 28X today. Is the 28X still with West Ox or is it a fulltime FMR route now? I know West Ox lost all their blue DE42LFAs, so I was wondering.

From today:
PRTC 285 F/H line
PRTC 1000 F/S Metro line
6552 REX
3033 9A (9A seems to be domainted by 2007 Orion VII OG CNG 30 footers these days for some reason).
2590 16G
2608 28A
PRTC 1000 F/S Metro line
PRTC 285 F/H line

Also, while passing by the ARTranist depot on the 9A, I saw 2 brand new 2014 NABI 40LFW (That's right! 40LFWs) 3Gs parked, numbered #5054 and #5056, so I assume there's also a #5055 and maybe a few others. These along with the WMATA BRT 42s are probably going to be among the last NABI buses ever built. That's all for now.

Couple interesting finds late yesterday afternoon and evening. First, I can confirm that 2014 MCI D4500CT #393 is in service with Omniride. Saw it on the Montclair line yesterday around 4:30. Secondly, I saw a 2012 Orion VII 3G Clean Diesel #3056 in service on a Northern VA route. Didn't know which one it was, but I know it was in service. Never seen those here before. This was at the pentagon.
