Post by: Nabinut on May 16, 2009, 04:01:40 PM
For the 134th session of the Preakness Stakes, MTA Maryland used their new New Flyer DE60LFRs for most their shuttles including a few entering service for the first time:

You gotta be kidding me man. Everybody knows Pimlico. It's the racetrack where a famous event occurs every year (cough cough The Preakness) ((at least for now)). Nice pics Thomas. I was trying to call you to see if you spotted any tics on the 67 and I guessed right. I like that 8003 peeked out. I wonder what the symbols are on the sign on 8022.

All the 67 signs had the "Walking people" in them. The Kirk 4000s didn't have that

I really hope MTA makes 8003 their new paint scheme. It would look really good on frameless windows buses.

Very nice photos, thanks.  It is a shame that attendance was down so much that many people didn't get a chance to ride the new buses and see a filly win for the first time in 86 years.
