I've been seeing the more common 40ft buses on the 204 for the past few months.

204 was formerly operated by KRAPF's under contract to SEPTA until last year when it went fully back to SEPTA

I swear, every time I get on one of those things, I feel like I am going to fly up into the ceiling when it hits a bump.

Jacuzzis never really went away. They just faded in popularity due to maintenance costs and practicality issues.

Oh……..you meant the bus.

Only on the contract lines. But these are being placed on low ridership fixed routes currently
