Gil Posted February 26, 2021 Report Share Posted February 26, 2021 You see all those don't sound the same because they have a different engine for example in 2006 they have a Cummins 6.7 ISB, and right now the Eldorado national axess 30ft diesel buses has a Cummins L9 since #20300 is in service for Route 524 Departing Woodmans Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rotjohns Posted March 2, 2021 Report Share Posted March 2, 2021 There's only a handful of 2600s in rotation now. And 2826-2829 aren't leaving anytime soon, one of them just got a bus wrap. You don't wrap a bus if it's retiring. The 20300s will be sporatic until spring before we see a full fledged retirement or movement of any 2600s.
