Posted by Thehat on Thu Jul 10 15:36:33 2008, in response to Re: Staten Islanders unsatisfied with MTA bus service, posted by SUBWAYSURF on Thu Jul 10 07:04:41 2008. On my 5:12PM N/B BxM4A I typically carry 40 or more. The RTS suburban carries 39 and Orion 42. The seating capacity w/ reclining leaves the need for a bus w/ more capacity. The BxM11 during rush hour reaches capacity on the MCI. An artic suburban would only carry 60 pax. in the MTA configuration. I drive the MCI, I like it, but I agree it is overkill for this city and length of route/highway time. The Bee-line is going to suburban Orion's over the MCI. |
