New Gillig Low Floor

This is the new Gillig Low Floor. It is just sitting in the back for now. Heywood Garage is suppose to get over hundred of these Low Floors. Metro Transit went with the Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) look. Also this bus has the new paint design. There is also a Hybrid

Articulated Buses

This is the New Flyer Articulated bus. I drive this in the mornings. This bus is 60' long and it is easy to drive. It is cool to turn corners. This morning I had a couple of young girls on and they sat in the middle. When I turned the corner I could hear them scream a little. They must not have never been in a articulated bus before.
