Sweet photos, Trev, as usual.Thanks for sharing! The model looks OK. The 6th photo shows the left rear of the bus - it looks to resemble the RTS models where the depot sticker is located. |

I was feeling the same exact way as you were. I'm also wondering on what the number series would be? It can be either 4701-4730 5770-5799 or 7000-7029. I would think they would use 7000-7029. We'll see what happens. Great pics BTW! |

Outside looks like a RTS, but inside isn't bad. One thing that kinda bugs me, but a STRING to signal a stop request? a STRING? no Yellow TouchTape? That's weird. Cockpit looks great, IMO. I like the destination sign machine in that slanted slots with the manual fire supression system. nice bus. wouldnt mind having that in NJT |

Could be, but compared to an O7, it looks about the same [going by the seats].Also the back section will need those horizontal bars with the floor being much lower. And even narrower to stand in. |

The number series is being kept secrect, however I was told that it will be something out of the ordinary.The interior is actually roomy, not too bad. Up to 80 of these will be ordered if all goes well. The bus shown today is a actual production unit off the order, it is not a demo. |

You mean the MTA is actually going to buy a bus with an ergonomically correct driver's compartment??!! What happened?? Did the individuals responsible for bus purchasing at the MTA finally snap out of their comas!! Also, is the MTA dissatisfied with the Orion VII NG or do they just want to try a competing brand? |

That upward-curved windshield extending over the front destination sign is a major design flaw - you can see in every one of Trevor's and Joe's photos how the reflection of the sky obstructs the destination sign reading. Taking photos of these buses is going to be a major pain in the rear. |

Designline:30 Units on the Primary with an Option for 60. And from what I heard today, they will probably take up to 50 of the options. Nova: 90 Units on the Primary, no options. |

Where did you get that from, the bus is a 40-footer. The demo we had before was a 35-footer. But the bus that was presented today was a clean 40-feet with 35 seats, 1 less seat than an Orion 7 Next Gen. |
