True, look at the MC-9B. It is an 96-A3 in a MC-9 skin. The 9-A was just a front cap and the already available bi-part door, they stepped up in 1987 with the 9-B order and even Eagle struggling to meet then made the AE-20 in '89. The NJT Eagle 20 isn't really an Eagle 20 with the exception of the suspension. That bus was designed with an interior comprising of Flxible parts. and exterior with psuedo-MCI parts and placement. The floor height was modified to match the MCI. Seeing something different would be nice, but I subscribe to "tried & true". Anyone notice the spec. for the steering tag axle? That's new for NJT, even when leasing the Canadian 102-DL3 & the MTA 7100's, the tag sterring was disabled. Interesting IMO! |
