BusHunter Posted May 12, 2020 Report Share Posted May 12, 2020 Came across an interesting article, it seems Novabus is offering to install shields in its buses. Don't know if this is free like an extended warranty, which usually you pay for, or is the company just saying the products are there. I wonder if the #6400's come back can they have shields installed or is it just not worth the effort. It couldn't cost too much to equip 60 or 70 buses could it. http://novabus.com/nova-bus-offers-new-products-promote-safety-cleanliness-onboard-public-transit-vehicles-operations-sites-gradually-resume-covid-19-pandemic/?fbclid=IwAR1hpyfizoI7nfm_bpYIaN4ttO0C6mmZWf3oYhof-Rc5far8Ecq2g9CmxEQ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The #6400s are LFS but they may mean current model LFS". But I thought the current model already comes with shields standard, they don't?

If any other Novas get them, they'll be retrofirs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BusHunter Posted May 12, 2020 Author Report Share Posted May 12, 2020 Just thought like with the xcelsiors that bus manufacturers were putting this in there buses. Only way to really know is find a nova bus that is new model that doesnt have one. Then I have my answer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The shields are why 103rd got some Novas that they otherwise wouldn't have gotten. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
