Can someone confirm this?  A friend in Baltimore text me this, and I find it hard to believe as I just rode three Metro Bs not even two weeks ago.  I realize NABI is sending in new buses by the truckload, but I also know today is April Fool's and hope it's a joke.....
Once all the goats are rounded up, the German tourists are extradited, and the syrup trucks are returned, you'll have to admit that you never saw that one coming.

I was unaware that WMATA was even receiving new buses from NABI.

It is whatever.

Some TA out there is going to be really pissed when they find out the NABIs they purchased are going to the DC Area instead of their agency.  ^_^
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...

You know, I really do kind of wonder if all the Ikarus/NABI artics are retired.  They were a mainstay on the Y route in MoCo for a long time, and now the only artics on that route are the New Flyer artics.

Whoever guesses the number of hairs I lost after hearing each of the above wins a cookie.
