Title: All Flxibles and NABI/Ikarus Artics Retired??
Post by: Flxible on April 01, 2010, 08:50:41 PM
Can someone confirm this?  A friend in Baltimore text me this, and I find it hard to believe as I just rode three Metro Bs not even two weeks ago.  I realize NABI is sending in new buses by the truckload, but I also know today is April Fool's and hope it's a joke.....

I was unaware that WMATA was even receiving new buses from NABI.

Some TA out there is going to be really pissed when they find out the NABIs they purchased are going to the DC Area instead of their agency.  ^_^

You know, I really do kind of wonder if all the Ikarus/NABI artics are retired.  They were a mainstay on the Y route in MoCo for a long time, and now the only artics on that route are the New Flyer artics.
