Jon11 Posted August 26, 2010 Report Share Posted August 26, 2010 I'm seeing that Line 66 used to operate 40ft Nabi buses and New Flyer buses. Now it operates the 60 ft buses. And also line 4 used to operate 60ft buses, but now it operates 40 ft Nabi and Neoplans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mr.mta Posted December 14, 2010 Report Share Posted December 14, 2010 I'm seeing that Line 66 used to operate 40ft Nabi buses and New Flyer buses. Now it operates the 60 ft buses. And also line 4 used to operate 60ft buses, but now it operates 40 ft Nabi and Neoplans. I'm guessing that on line 4, the 60 footers are used on rush hour times, and the Nabis/Neoplans are used on off-peak times. It's probably to save fuel by not having to use a huge bus to carry a few people, when it is economical to uses a smaller bus for the same job. Just my opinion as I am a newbie to transit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
George L. Posted December 14, 2010 Report Share Posted December 14, 2010 Line 4 never uses the NABI 60-BRT's anymore. Line 704 uses the 60-BRT's at all times now. The reason for the BRT's not being on Line 4 is that the Local service units are all stretched out across the Los Angeles region. Line 233 is still using the 60-BRT's for one. Can we please move this discussion to the main LACMTA thread? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
