Posted by Flxible4life on Sun Jun 3 15:30:49 2012 With CTA making historic news about its purchase of 425 buses. From the 425 bus order, 325 are 40FT low emissions clean diesel buses and the other 100 are a mix of clean diesel and hybrid-electric diesel buses. Also, rehabbing its 1,030 New Flyer D40LFs by 2013-2014. Here are my fun questions to you all.Who do you think or should win the 40FT bus order? Between NovaBus and New Flyer. Who do you think or should win the articulated order with some being BRT bus application for the Jeffery Corridor? I personally would like to see Millennium Transit Services win the standard 40 ft. order with their RTS "Extreme", but in a 42.5' configuration. I like variety in a fleet. The articulated buses I believe should go to New Flyer for their Xcelsiors. CTA says it's bids are open for those bus manufacturers that are interested. This means it doesn't have to be strictly New Flyer.... whose bus fleet are dominated by them. It's a good day and moving forward in Chicago. |
