There are a few other 1998 & 2000 40' Orion Vs that are wrapped in the Adobe ad besides 2199. See my sightings lists -- specifically the buses wrapped in the Adobe ad -- in the October 2009 Observations thread.

While those sorts of errors don't happen as often as they used to with the CleverDevices being used to set the signs, it isn't unheard of. I've seen the T3 to Rockville and the J7 to Federal Triangle before, among other screwups. I also once saw a 2000 Orion V at Friendship Heights with its original signs that showed three different routes on each of the signs, none of which was the route the bus was about to start and none of which stopped at Friendship Heights. I can't locate the photos at the moment however.

I saw 2566 today at Ballston with that wrap, it looks pretty kickass

PLEASE READ!

This is my last set of photos for a while...and I mean a WHILE...depending on how fast I get the money for the new one I want (since I don't have a job, this won't happen for a while). Now these photos were taken within a range of 2 weeks ago up until yesterday, from Montgomery to Landover, DC, NoVA, etc...
My last shots were of 6456 on the J9, unfortunately, they were bad blurry shots, and that's where I decided that I can't take pics like this anymore, I want a camera more suitable for the conditions of what I shoot. Now, the photos below are in alphabetical (or in this case, numerical) order because that's how my photobucket is set up and I'm too lazy to arrange the photos from oldest to newest.

Nonetheless, here's the pics, enjoy!

Now I got to ask, Is AS48 a West Ox 38B block? The last time I saw another West Ox bus on this route, the block had AS as the first two characters. I forgot what the other two was. I think it was 10.

Strategic bus probably covering for a broken down bus or an extra run.
