Nice pics, I like where the MTA Bus logo is on 1295. Also, I assume the sign on 8177 is for the 137th Avenue runs correct?

That bus' driver's window also seemed to be the same one that the old PBL TMCs had.

It's 140th Av. There is no 137th Av destination sign.

What's the story on 1295? Is it a demo or is it part of a new order?

If I were in charge...I will let BP test the Aric for certain amoute of days..then I will send them to LGA for them to test it on the Q-53 during the summer time or maybe during rush hour(I don't know how the rideship during rush hour)since Q-53 headway isn't all that good....in the midday,then JFK could test whatever route they need too.

That bus, 1292, and 1294 are the three demo buses here for 30-day testing. 1294 has no stripe on it.
