NOOOOOOOOOOO!! My beloved colors that I grew up on! Where are they?! I don't see em' on that bus! Three decades of service and they want to change my colors?! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

Wait, it's CAT now!?!? NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!! I want my CTS back!! Give it back!! NOW!
:'( :'( :'(



NOTE: I knew about the CAT thing; that was bound to happen. When the "RTA" talks happened in 2007, they did hint at a name change.

Great looking Gillig, and although I like how the paint job does nicely reflect Charlottesville, I WANT MY OLD COLORS ON THAT BUS!!! PUT EM' BACK!!
:'( :'( :'(
It is whatever.

Las Vegas is no longer CAT.  It's been RTC Transit for a couple of years now, but the media and others won't stop referring to it as such.  Some of the coaches still have CAT, but they're getting eradicated as quickly as possible.

I like these new colors a lot better; they actually use COLORS. The old scheme just look like white buses and Janet planes.

It seems like the name change was kind of subdued.  Did you guys make a formal, public announcement saying that "hey, we are now CAT!"?  I think "CAT" was always a division of the RTC, and you guys just dropped the name, right?
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...

CAT was the name chosen quite awhile ago and nobody could really figure it out.  Since RTC is the transit system, the name is being officially changed to RTC Transit.  It was mentioned in formal releases but the media still calls it CAT every now and then.
