Do I understand correctly that 2024 is being retained as a (museum) bus ? Is 2083 or 2085 still on the property ? I ask because late last week, I saw 1 of these two back in service, in fact I did a double take when I saw it because it was a number that I had not seen for awhile.

L041 (zero-4-1), L053 and L063 are the Nova Bus order numbers for all the CDTA LFS. Not bus fleet numbers. L041: 9901-9944 L053: 9951-9959 L063: 3001-3011

Also correct 9945-9950,3012-3020 Novas, 9960, and STAR 226 all don't exist the rest of the numbers missing are just retired.
