[NEW BUS] San Diego MTS Rapid Bus - New Flyer XN60 Route 235

[@michaelhorgan9525]

1916 was posted on Instagram and I saw a video of 1913 on the 235 so there should be at least that many. More are probably coming though I would not be surprised to see some Electric buses coming into service as well. MTS has a contract for both ZEB and CNG buses.

I took some pics of 1913 and I have a video of it as well and yes the ZEB buses will be running on 227 tomorrow and it will replace the 950

The 1100 series are gonna be going to Santa Cruz to add extra capacity to all UC Santa Cruz bus routes. The bus crowding situation in Santa Cruz is horrible right now 😬

[@michaelhorgan9525]

Only 10 were sold to Santa Cruz
