Are th 4400s still in service?

Does anyone know if the 4400 series Orion Vs are still active? If so, who has them?

They are all done with revenue service. However, about a month ago I passed by Landover division and saw 4411 sitting there, along with some 4280s, all of which are probably preparing for retirement. If anything, they might be used for training as well.

Oh, if that's the case, then that's not good. That bus along with the other Orion V's there are likely going to be scrapped. About 2 years ago, a youtube transit fanner (forgot his name) shot video of some Orion Vs, IIs, and a 1995 Nabi 436 artic as well as a 1990 Flexible Metro B. The Metro B was apparently scrapped later that day.

I just hope WMATA saves a least one Orion V for the Museum fleet. They did not save any of the 1992 or 1999 Orion Vs nor did they save an Orion VI or an Orion II.
