ISM/ZF, eh?  I haven't heard that outside of the Vegas RTC Alexander Dennises.

So, I wonder why they went to Allisons...wasn't it one big order of New Flyers?

How common are the LFSs out there?  I'm dabbling with the idea of taking a trip out there this summer.  Also dabbling with the idea as to whether it's worth it to spring for a room on the Capital Limited...

What is PACE running these days?  Are most of the buses blue yet?
My favorite buses:
1989 SEPTA AN440: 19 years in service
1989 NJT Metro Bs: 21 years in service
1990 WMATA 93/9400 Flxes: 20 years in service!
1990-92 Ride-On Orion Is: 17-18 years in service!

Tell me again I have no taste in buses...

1) No idea why they switched to Allison but the last 100 units also have different seating arrangement then the rest.

2) You will have no problem finding LFS's no matter what day it is.

3) Believe it or not most of the PACE buses are still in the old yellow paint scheme. It's mostly NABI LFW's, Orion I's, Orion VI's and those Eldorado things. The hard to find equipment is the MCI D4000 and the Nova Classics.

When did PACE start getting a new scheme and are there photos of it online?  I couldn't find any on Google Images with the search strings I tried.
