The OCTA and its articles are in a serious need for updates because the fleet info is incomplete particularly because there are shuttle buses used for OCTA ACCESS Service that are not in the fleet. I have lived in Orange County, California for almost my entire life and this is the bus system where I had my first bus rides in 2015! The following details that must be added to the OCTA and its articles are: The OCTA was established in 1991 from the Orange County Transit District OCTA units 8501-8599 are 2014-2015 Glaval Buses built on a Ford F-450 Chassis OCTA units 8601-8700 series are 2017 StarCraft buses built on a Ford F-450 chassis OCTA routes 20, 51, 145, 187, 188, 191, 193, 410, 411, 430, 464, 490, 757, and 758 are discontinued Add OCTA routes 53X, 57X, 64X, 150, Bravo 543, and Bravo 560 OCTA units 8301-8364 were 1999 ElDorado National Aerotech buses built on a Ford F450 chassis.

OCTA unit 6031 was a 2008 ElDorado National E-Z Rider II BRT originally intended to replace the 1997-1998 E-Z Riders, but it was rejected. This bus supposedly had a Cummins Westport ISL G with an Allison Transmission B300R and Transit Sales International is presumed to have this bus on their website.

Yesterday, I rode a Cerritos on Wheels bus with the fleet number 16, on route 2. First Transit runs these buses but they don't own them just like the OCTA, NCTD, and Foothill Transit. This bus service connects with Metro, OC Bus, Long Beach Transit, and Norwalk Transit. There are 6 routes: 1A, 1B, 1C, 2A, 2B, and 2C. All routes run from Cerritos Towne Center to Cerritos College. There are at least 4 buses in their fleet: Units 15-18, 2004 model ElDorado National XHF propane buses built around December 2004. These buses have 31 4ONE Angel seats, TwinVision Amber LED signs, and Cummins Westport B LPG engines with Allison Transmission B300R 5 speed powertrains. The one way fare costs $0.50, a monthly pass is $20, and a set of 3 monthly passes are $30. So far, this is my first ride on a high-floor transit bus, apart from those OCTA cutaways I rode on routes 164 and 191.
