The long awaited MTA NYCT 690 bus order is OVER!

The MTA had split the award between Novabus and New Flyer for 414 and 276 buses respectively. Now i's only a matter of time before they use the extra 700 bus option order. If they do, that will kill off almost every last RTS and Orion V diesel. pilot buses are set to arrive this time next year or within the next 9-11 months. This will be interesting.
