March 2009 Observations

[Scrabbleship]

You guys won't believe this, but I saw 2118 going into Montgomery with "004 Montgomery Mall" on its sign!! Could Northern have swapped with Montgomery too?

Oh, and 6013 on the S2 yesterday afternoon at 16th & Irving. So weird to see something besides an Orion V on the S's on Sundays..

Is Northern trying to test new buses? I saw a D40LFR on the 70 before now 6013 on the S2? Guess there switching buses back and forth with Landover since Landover are getting some 2100's series.

Well this one goes into that huh? file.

I saw 6019 deadheading up 14th street just north of Constitution avenue.  This was in the am.

HELLO EVERYONE

The reason being folks are seeing Landover Hybirds is that yes they are training operators on them because when the DE41LFR's/DE62LFR's are sent to northern for the S9 line and regular service. You cant just jump on a hybird an go so they have to get trained on them.

I knew that. They are DE42/62LFAs. But why did they chose Landover's DE40LF's? They could've gotten some of MoDi's hybrids.

Sup lil Brandon that's a good question for real but who knows. But ita a funny thing tho cause the new Septa 8100's there 41ft an Mta's is 40 ft an DC's is 42 ft damn they got a good race going on there who can operate the longest bus without it being a tic lol

Now they must be switching wit Montgomery  And why does THEBUS insist on putting these words on there buses for example if you look at the back of there advantages youll see "14....Ride THEBUS...SAVE ENERGY" I dont get that at all!!!!!
