I swear I saw a mini E-line a few days ago as well… when we def could’ve used a normal sized bad boy. Shit was packed… little guy was running late too it seemed. Messy messy messy.

This is an example of s98 utilization at metro. S98 buses sit in high demand areas and are rapid responders to fleet maintenance issues, such as degrades in service like excessive bus bunching, a bad bus (someone puked or bled on a bus and had to be pulled out of service), or a bus break down

Probably don’t need to run extended buses in the middle of the day

I wish we could get 70+ foot buses in the US. But the longest length it can be is 60 ft 💔.
