The bigger Wave

Can't find a better picture, but this is the BRATS bus connecting Mobile and the Eastern Shore via the Causeway, along with part of a Wave bus. I believe this is the grand opening of the line (it's only a couple years old).

Phileas Advanced Public Transport System in the city of Eindhoven.

It's basically a low emission, guided system in dedicated lanes.
The city also has regular busses but this is the line to the airport.

I'll bump this thread...

Metro Transit recently changed its livery. There are currently still many buses in the old livery. This is the old one, pretty boring:

Here is one of my photos of the new scheme on a New Flyer Articulated bus. I like the front, but the sides are still not that great.

All of Metro Transit's articulated buses are from New Flyer, while all the 40 ft. buses are from Gillig. Here is a new hybrid 40ft. bus with Gillig's "BRT" front:

Here is a hybrid bus wrapped to promote their "Go Greener" campaign. There are a bunch of these still rolling around:

And here is what their new coach buses look like

Here is a Van Hool University of Minnesota Campus Connector shuttle:

The Minnesota Valley Transit Authority is the next largest transit provider in the Twin Cities, but it is much smaller than Metro Transit:

http://www.flickr.com/photos/thetran...7620476386399/

Next largest after that is Southwest Transit. I call this the Darth Vader Bus:

http://www.flickr.com/photos/thetran...7620477345045/

There are other smaller transit providers as well, but I think that is enough.

Not the greatest shot, but here is Lethbridge, Alberta's new livery used on their 2009 Novabus LFS's (this is #167, one of 5 in their fleet):

Not sure what the rest of your articulated buses are like. But I noticed that you have no middle door between the front and rear door. Here all the articulated buses have a front door and then a door about 1/2 way down the front section then of course a rear door in the middle of the rear section.

Not my city, but here are some pictures of buses from Orlando. They seem to have a palette of pastel colors that are applied randomly.

The new "Living Thunder Bay" livery, which unlike our previous livery change will be applied to almost all buses (buses that are retiring soon aren't being re-done, obviously):

It is intended to bring transit's look in line with the city's new corporate identity. You can see how it fits by visiting the website. Some of the new government vehicles have a similar theme but in purple. The bottom will have ad space, once they install the frame. This is the previous design (2005 to 2010), and this is what they were using from the mid 80s to 2005.

The new look will save $31,000 a year.
