Nice, but I really doubt BW63 is even a block for the D6, but at least there's some progress with getting the signs on these buses together.

It had some other block number scrawled in pink highlighter on that sheet of paper in the windshield - Stay Classy, DC!

Here's another 10 from Wednesday and this morning...

P6 16th & Sheridan? I didn't even know they had a sign for that. Plus the block was wrong as well (New buses, same problems). Anyway, good pics.

I think I've yet to get one that has a perfect trifecta of route-destination-block number combo intact.  Witness this one junk shot I took the other day of a D6's destination.(https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-U0aeVKJ-7Eo/TkVHzds-CRI/AAAAAAAAFfw/oWbXfZwoM5A/SAM_0360.JPG)

Nice pic.  Now the confusing part.  Unless they're reseating the 2700s, I'm at a loss as to why this bus wasn't painted blue.

Post by: btconet on August 15, 2011, 03:14:06 PM
Not to hijack the thread with conversation, but given how the words "EXPRESS" and "LOCAL" have vanished from both recent repaints and bus orders, to what degree is WMATA still actively engaging in the dedicated fleets?

Anyone know which/when was the last existing bus painted with the EXPRESS/LOCAL wording? 
For that matter, is 2665 the only EXPRESS painted Orion VII and does it have any special seating to it?

Not that I know of. I spotted 2665 on the 7W at the Mark Center yesterday.

Ralph, I'm using a Fujifilm F70EXR camera. I want to upgrade to a DSLR because I'm not getting the really good quality pics I desire. Also, these were the same pics straight out of the camera.

I didn't notice the pigeon in the shot until I uploaded it to Flickr. The 5A shot was also a stroke of luck moment. I tried to get a front shot but the one I got pretty much tells the story. I figure the 34 was detouring around the Capitol since they had evacuated the complex.
