@qwandiddy: I don't know, but there are very few of the RTS buses left and it would be very hard to find them...
-
@baul104 Ohh no!!! How many are now left of TMCs (MTA)? Or was 1127 the last one? Thank you for the update bro!!
-
@qwandiddy: UPDATE: Coach #1127 has now been retired as of June or July of this year.

Thanks! I'm glad they are still active, but sadly, they may be retiring sooner or later... And plus, these RTS buses of Flint should be nicknamed "The Ol' Road Warriors", don't you think?

@baul104 I think that those first New Flyers that came to MTA back in 1996/97 were the ones that replaced the GMC RTSes, I wish that I would have a picture of their GMC RTSes. But TMC RTS has done so much excellent job for working hard from MTA for over 20 years so far.

@baul104 Good Job of taking shot of this sexy clean lookin RTS, Im gonna miss them when they are retiring. Can't believe they were still rollin' on Highway 75 to Great Lakes Crossings.

@novabuslfsafan I doubt it for more New Flyers because Minnesota was proposed to close their NF plant. My guess would be the Gillig Advantages if not Nova LFs or Orion VII NG.
I believe that is a GMC RTS my friend

@mm2haloguy: I know... These buses are like workhouses that has been roaming the streets and freeways/highways of Flint since 1989 and 1990. These buses will surely be missed... However, I believe there may be very few of them running, but they could be very hard to find because they're probably slated down to rush hours only...
