My main complaint is that their signs change too slowly, a real problem on a Limited bus, when the sign doesn't show "Limited" for such a long time that it appears to be a local bus. How long are we supposed to stare to see if it changes?So many other new buses get this right, why are these different? Doesn't TA or MTA specify the requirements and parameters? |

Because they are test buses, and have a mixed configuration just like the just like the LFS test buses. MTA wants to continue their evaluation of the Allison alongside the ZF. And I made an error, it's 1075-1089 that will have the ZF. |
