Beautiful! And I guess there seems to be an inconsistancy about the back part of the blue stripe [compared to the one at jamaica av depot].

4516 is the same way. It appears another spec has changed. This is more like the way 1292 was with no side lamps.

What is the spec change? Looking at my pics of 4532, I don't see it, unless it's the windows.

He is referring to the abscence of the curb lights.

The MTA will likely not be getting any 2010 models just yet. Mississauga Transit will be getting the first EPA2010 compliant units in July, 2010. Seattle's KCM units will be the second ones.

I wonder if the MTA is toying with the idea of not including them just so they don't have to be in the way of ads...

That makes you wonder if the center one will eventually be covered up. Keep in mind that the ex-PBL O5s once had a turn light in the center of the bus that eventually was removed from the buses for ads (7242 at last check still has it despite the ads).
