Last time I was in this neat little town they ran RTSs and Neoplans. The oldest buses out today were 35' NF low floors. There were a few Opus buses, a Freightliner Sprinter; the Gillig Advantages are diesel and Hybrid in two delicious sizes. We never saw any buses in the 10XX series. Not sure if they exist but RVT operates seasonal "trolleys"; not sure of their fleet numbers.

Does the Freightliner double as a european ambulance? And does the Opus bring you to the car rental facility? At least the graphics are decent.

LOL ... it's a 'JERSEY SHORE' bus!

Great shots, Joe - I've never been to Williamsport so it's nice to see what they have.

I wish for the opposite, and I'm guessing the 1200s were delivered with the bike racks.

Nice pics! I'm not sure if the RTSs are still out there - a few months ago when I passed by the depot they were parked inside.

Here's a pic of one of their Trolley Replicas that I discovered when I went out there one Saturday in 2006:
