I have already linked the pic. (Milton Transit 0805-a)

That bus looks like the demo bus on Transit now bus instead of red, it`s blue and green

Its the same bus, just slightly repainted to match some Milton colors. This 1997 model is an ex-CNG Demonstrator, owned by Orion, and recently purchased by MTB, and rebuilt. Its just waiting on insurance/plates before it can be cleared for service. Radio and GFI Farebox have been installed on this unit. This will in any case, be the "back up" bus for any service disruptions occuring in Milton.

All the Miton's fleet are parked at MTB, what's going on? Did GO kicked them out?

Effective Monday, MTB is taking over storage/maintenance/fueling. From now on, Drivers report to MTB to pick up their buses, and also when service is finished, they return them to MTB for the night. GO Transit is not servicing them anymore. MTB picked them up today from GO Transit's yard and brought them to their yard.

So I guess their contract has end up then.

Now, any progress on their new buses from the joint procedure?

Was told that MTB's "Milton Transit" Orion VI #0805 will be cleared for service starting on Monday. This doesn't mean the bus will be out Monday Morning. It is to be used as an emergency back up bus should one of the other units break down (which is common).
