Whoever dislike this is a Junkcelsior fan or sorta of new crap modern bus fan. Neoplans are the greatest buses we ever had.

[@Park_Place]

As far as I know the Xcelsiors are still more reliable than the ElDorado Axess buses

Nice work with the upload. truly a generation of classics gone, but we saw the beginning of the end of the classic when the 7xxx NABI was introduced.
Do you still operate for the MTA nowadays?

[@consuelomojica26]

[@lakerguy1194]

The Rapid Bus fleet ( red ones) had a device that could change a signal light from red to green when it’s about to change red , my dad told me that he used to drive but now he’s in the office teaching new drivers
