You know, this just dawned on me but MAYBE that option order for this order could have 55 buses (1001-1066 with gaps possibly) as 35ft and 40ft buses and the option order of 28 buses (1101-1128) could be 30ft buses. Just a thought. |

The order consists of 81 buses: 15-40' # 1001 - 1015, 50-35' # 1016-1065 and 16-30' # 1066-1081. And # 1064 (a 35' bus) seen at Hampton Jitney this week. |

Then THAT bus replaced #9620. |

Unless they get two, like they did with the 50xx order. Still don't get why they had gotten two 50xx buses, if all their routes except the 90 used the 97xx buses. |

Well, I saw #5042 on the 10B the other day. The 10B for some reason uses TWO buses (#5042 and I think #9711). #5041 is for the S90. I've seen that bus deadhead back to Hampton Jitney. |

Maybe because 9711 is so old, they have 5042 follow it in case it breaks down they don't have to waste time getting a bus from the depot, Since the 10B is only suppose to have one bus running it, unless that changed. |

LMAO!!! You're funny! You're right though but I just don't see why #5042 would run on the 10B and not alternate with #5041 on the S90 OR run on the S92. |

I thought the same thing about the 90. The 92 would be a different story since it is listed as being run by Sunrise and 5042 is leased to Hampton Jitney, but i guess 5042 could be used on the 92 if it was really needed. |
