 Fantastic! Thanks for the information. I updated the page, but I'm missing a batch of '09 buses. Did BARTA get about 8 or so diesel BRTs?

Man, the fleet must be getting boring nowadays :(. Do they rehab buses there? It'd be nice to see Opuses and New Flyers in the new scheme!

 As far as I'm aware, only two diesel BRTs came for 2009. Course, I've never actually been at the garage to take a look at what buses they have.

 They definetely have the 2003 Optimabus Opus's and New Flyer D40LFs. As well as 2004 Gillig Advantages. And also 2005, 2007, and 2008 Gillig BRTs. As well as 2009 BRT diesel and hybrid. I rode a D40LF and the interior color. Not a good color for 2003.

Y'know, I rode NJT's Flx Metros yesterday, and I must honestly say that I miss the brown/woodgrain interior on new buses. It had such a homey feel to it. The new style of gray, silver, blue, and black isn't as comforting in my opinion.
