 I agree. I doubt that a "30 ft" NABI would be rocking with an ISM engine. Besides, I remember someone on the forum stating that they are supposed to be an option order to the Miami-Dade Opuses, which have the redesigned front that makes them 32 ft long.

Of course, I don't know the details, so who knows?

 Well, for what it's worth, I made a trip up to New York today which included a brief interlude into North Jersey. The only NABI I saw was on the 125 at PABT (I was trying to catch a 126 at PABT; got stuck with 1899, which flew pretty good through the Lincoln Tunnel - got into Hoboken 6 minutes hot). This was late in the evening at around 9pm, so I'm sure it was a matter of bad timing on my part.

I'll try to post more on my NYC "outer borough adventures" tomorrow.

Wouldn't be shocked if this NABI were to constantly spin out due to the high levels of torque.

I don't think anyone who posted those specifications on Wikipedia has any idea what these buses will get. There's still a debate going on whether or not those nabis even have the CATC9. I hope whatever comes down to S Jersey though is a improvement over the flxibles.

Enjoy the Flxes while you can! We'll have more than enough NABI 416s to last us for a while.

I was fortunate to catch a NABI on the 126 the last time I was up there (after accidentally passing up one). However, the other two buses I saw on the route were an RTS (?!) and a Metro D.
