Starting tomorrow the MTA 201 service will have a new look. Buses will be wrapped with a really slick BWI themed livery. Montgomery County to BWI and Arundel Mills just $5!(https://fbcdn-sphotos-a-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-ash3/s480x480/945112_516260381744262_653010002_n.jpg) (https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=516260381744262&set=a.194855000551470.36145.177550238948613&type=1&relevant_count=1&ref=nf)
I only wish they had added something to represent AMKTRAK at the BWI Station.
Question, how many MCIs does Bmore MTA have anyway?
It is difficult to count the MCIs MTA owns because most of the coaches are used, stored and serviced by the contractors who operate the commuter bus services (Eyre, Dillon's, Atlantic Coast Charters, etc.)
I see.
The ones that are actually branded in the MTA Maryland livery are numbered 119C to 186C. However, since most of the routes are operated by contractors, you often see non-MTA branded coaches on the commuter routes (for example, the 991 is operated by Eyre, when I go to Shady Grove during pm rush, I often see Eyre and MTA buses on the 991).
About the wrap: looks nice, it's too bad I never got shots of the old one, but I'll keep a lookout for the new wraps when I go to Shady Grove
