Heading down the road on 5416, I snapped this shot.


Arrived at Fort Totten
























I left Fort Totten to head to Columbia Heights and rode Circ's newest buses downtown.






Headed over to Union Station and went home

Happy Labor Day

no way, WTF is that?

Usually they are used as shuttles to get bus drivers from Metro stations or remote parking lots to bus garages. They're most prolific out of Northern since the shuttles from Columbia Heights have become regular since WMATA leased some of the unused spots in the DCUSA garage.

Was it one of those green "TAGS" vehicles?

I think these were a separate set of cutaways that were mainly used for employee shuttles included with the TAGS buses order.

I also took these on the 23rd of August, but forgot to upload them with the others, so here they are.
Yeah, not all of them are that great of pictures, but don't worry, you won't see the time stamps in my future pictures.

Wow, I'm really out of the loop nowadays...when did Circulator get new 40 foot buses?  I'm wondering if Krapf's is running a demo based off of them in Philadelphia...I didn't realize more were purchased!
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...
