Hello, as many of you know, the LACMTA has a giant collection of NABI 45C's and about 20 40C LFW's, which are made of composite material. However, NABI wasn't LACMTA's first compobus option, it was Northrop Grumman. I posted this on the Los Angeles MTA thread already, but I think posting this here was a good idea too. Only a small batch was made but Imagine if this was everywhere today... http://cptdb.ca/wiki/index.php?title=Northrop_Grumman_Advanced_Technology_Transit_Bus On the left, you'll see the difference http://www.chaffeeyiu.com/photo/mta/gateway2.jpg Close up http://www.chaffeeyiu.com/photo/mta/mta-9801.jpg Passenger side http://www.bmpcoe.org/bestpractices/internal/north/grf_north_14.html Collision Testing http://www.bmpcoe.org/bestpractices/internal/north/grf_north_15.html Engine: Detroit Diesel series 30
