[[Image:Bicycle icon.png|26px|Bicycle rack equipped route]] - Bike rack-equipped buses on all urban routes.<br/>
[[File:CNG logo.jpg|30px|CNG fuel]] - CNG-fueled bus.
 
The livery of CamTran buses is white, with a sky blue diagonal block from the front of the bus, down to the back corner.  In addition, there are dark red or maroon accents along the roof and separating the white and blue blocks on the bottom portion of the bus.
 
A single known bus (fleet number 215) carries an orange body, with cream accents along the top and a cream downward "bulge" in the middle of the side of the bus.
 
Some buses also carry varieties of bus wraps for various advertisements.
 
The livery of CamTran+ buses carry a similar design to that of the standard fleet, however the front diagonal carries a royal blue color, with the back diagonal carrying a gold color.

The Cambria County Transit Authority, also known as CamTran (since June, 1999), is the public transportation provider for Cambria County, Pennsylvania. The Cambria County Transit Authority began operation on July 20, 1976, however, did not begin bus operations until December 1, 1976. The Johnstown Inclined Plane was acquired April 12, 1982 for $1 from the Borough of Westmont, PA.

CamTran services include an urban route network serving Johnstown, PA; CamTran+, a rural van network servicing the Northern Cambria County; and the Johnstown Inclined Plane, having the distinction as one of the steepest vehicular inclines in the world.[1]
