In 2019, all of the Novabus RTS units in New York City were retired. The last ones were the 1999 Novabus RTS units #4900-5249, and the last ones were at the Michael J. Quill Manhattan Depot, the Flatbush Brooklyn Depot, and the Ulmer Park Brooklyn Depot.
I should have said Nova Bus in Roswell. They closed down in Roswell and limped along in St Eustache for years before becoming a real player. The fact that Orion Bus went out of business leaving New Flyer as the only large Transit bus manufacturer helped them greatly.
@@antoniojmonetti It's not really hard at all. The details are there if you know where to find it. They didn't have the funding to build the buses so they cancelled it and had to cancel orders to the point where they went into bankruptcy.

8:54 New York University actually has some of Ex-NJT RTSes? Was that RTS one from '95?
