Nice pics as always, although I'm not feeling that blue on the classic.  I love the dark navy blue and forest green on them, though.  The paint on those buses should be metallic, in my opinion.

Hmm, are you guys running on a full schedule on Good Friday?
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...

Very cool.  I particularly liked the yellow Neoplan (#1934).  It displayed "Bladerunner" on the destination sign.  Where is "Bladerunner?"  As a rail fan I also appreciated CSX #64, an AC powered GE Locomotive.

thanks alot I knew i would get some railfans drooling over that picture..thats my first freight train picture hopefully i can get more...

its actually "Bladerunners" its an Ice skating Rink out in Cranberry/Marshall Twp. its basically the end of the line for the 13K (serves the Park N' Ride there) that route ALWAYS has a metroliner once it reaches bladerunners you have to back the bus up to turn around and get out of there because theres no loop-around its a nice route the only thing about it the Deadhead back to the garage (Hamar Division) is longer than the route itself LOL! heres a shot I took of one of our 1900s sitting after a run my friend use to have this run last year when he had just came back from being laid off its not a bad route:

Heh, I learned the hard way that many "government" holidays meant significantly reduced service.  That's why I have yet to grab pics of MARC in Maryland.

I most definitely like the metallic colors on the classic - they fit perfectly, dark or white.  I'm not thrilled that those colors went by the wayside.

But regardless of color, it's better than that other big system in the state that barely colors its New Flyers (and other buses).
