Posted by JAzumah on Mon Sep 1 09:04:32 2014 Are the Phantoms being used on Route 265? Do any of these buses have soft seats?Can MCIs fit through the freeway express stations? |

All of Metro's Phantom's have "soft seats" in the semi-suburban configuration. I don't see why an MCI would not fit, as the freeway stations are new, and you can run an artic through them. |

Metro transitioned to cushioned shell seats with the Orion Happy Buses and NFI DE60LFR's.The 265 duplicates other service, and is being discontinued later this month. If the 265 is out of Bellevue Base, it gets a Gillig, but if it's East Base, it will not be assigned a Gillig unless there is a fleet shortage, in which case it would likely receive an 1100. Freeway stations can accomodate an MCI, lift, luggage bays and all. Brian Bradford Ward's Island, NY |
