Posted by FYBklyn1959 on Mon Sep 3 15:51:07 2007, in response to Re: Kicking it old school--bus pics from the 80s and 90s, posted by FYBklyn1959 on Mon Sep 3 15:45:06 2007. Continuing with RTD/MTA yards...  2 views of Division 8 (West Valley) from June 1996. The RTS-04s in the second pic were being stored at D8, but a few of them were later activated for use by contractors (I forget exactly which #s).   First pic was taken in early 1991, when Division 12 (Long Beach) was very much active. By the time of the 2nd pic (November 1997), D12 had been closed as a revenue division, and was hosting 1992/3 Methanol powered TMC RTS-06s until they could be converted to diesel. It is still being used as a storage facility for out of service buses, but I think I read that MTS is thinking of selling it. It was closed in June 1997, as a cost-cutting measure, since many of its routes had been contracted, and the remainder shifted to D18. |
