I can imagine the a/c that the the Trackless Trolleys have on the New toys and there is none on the back. SEPTA must be ad crazy

 School is about to start and all I can think about is that now I go to school in the suburbs (Springfield Township) :( Going to be hard to see these often. Before I took the 18 or 22 to the BSL everyday, would have been easy to see one daily. :(

At least you live in the city. The closest bus to me is the L at Erdenheim, like a 6-7 minute walk down Paper Mill Road. Yesterday may have been my last 18 ride. :o

 Im a little disapointed they did not get new look and no other newflyer buses look like these on the roof this must be a septa request because the roof favors the PCCII configuration and no H in bus number. :'(

 Where is 8120? If there is an 8120?

Also, they might run the new hybrids on the 77 from time to time, show and tell.

 Are the numbers just 8121 or does it have an H on it?
