MTA Bus Company:

TMC RTS (ex-New York City Transit)


In order to bolster the MTA Bus local fleet, New York City Transit sent a number of its older TMC RTSs to various MTA Bus depots. Many of these buses were originally built in 1990 and are approaching 18 years of age; they are due to be retired as soon as the next order of Orion VII hybrids arrives. Some of these buses have had their original flipdot signs removed and replaced with surplus rollsigns or newer flipdots.

All of the ex-New York City Transit buses feature their previous numbers.
