Hopefully. I saw the owner of Milton Transit 9901 wanted $31,000 and a member on this board was negotiating the price with him. Talks concluded and I believe a company in Newfoundland purchased the bus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, an airport in Goose Bay. As for the buses in NYC, I highly doubt that the buses are still for sale, as the MTA wouldn't keep those buses for *cough* 12 years *cough*.

Someone else is, but one can see some other MTA RTS's in the photo. I'm assuming that is the dead area of a garage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bus_Medic Posted March 14, 2019 Report Share Posted March 14, 2019 Orchard probably bought it to shuttle their seasonal picking crews around. They’re expensive to maintain compared to more utilitarian school buses, which can fit more men to boot. I reckon he found that out the hard way. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What I believe is a blueberry farm in Richmond, BC has an old MCI coach they use to shuttle a large number of workers. On 3/12/2019 at 10:54 PM, A.

That model is actually pretty rare in Canada but quite common stateside. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MVTArider Posted May 1, 2019 Report Share Posted May 1, 2019 M-B 0 309 minibus from 1972, looks like it might still be semi intact from transit use too given the livery is on: https://minneapolis.craigslist.org/hnp/hvo/d/hibbing-1972-mercedes-benz-0309/6878137936.html Anyone aware of how this may have been used? Fixed-route, demand-response? I'm not seeing any clear passenger entry door on the side so maybe the front door just has steps?? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
