Saw and rode 870 today on the B68. It now got interior LED lights installed in it. I got pics and video that would come later on tonight or tomorrow.

IIRC a couple of C40LFs have it, I guess the MTA is giving them some mid-life TLC.

What they should also install it on the 1996-2000 New Flyer artics, they really have dim lights, night as brighter then the 2003 models.

There is also one O7 hybrid with this---I believe it is 6560. IMO, this should become the future standard...LEDs last longer than even fluorescent bulbs.

a lot of agencies are making the switch to LED interior lights. From what I heard from a good Florida source, Miami Dade Transit will get LED lights installed on their NABIs.

King County Metro (Seattle) had it installed as a test on one of the New Flyer D40LFs from 2003.

Nice!
In the news, the Brooklyn Bridge is going LED too. I was surprised, as I didn't think the LED bulbs were bright enough for that yet. Must be real expensive ones!
The Rockefeller Center tree is LED, and so is the New Year's ball; which I just saw today aon display at Macy's! Only three days left. Its a dazzling display of color, as the triangles all can change to different colors from each other.

The bus signs are already LED; now if only we can get the color changing ones in MTA!
