BleuMCO,

I don't know whether to congratulate you or feel sorry for you going from 'Big Blue' (the best run bus company in the country) to LACMTA.

Nevertheless, you've made the switch and I wish you the best in your new surroundings.

Now, speaking as an unofficial self appointed assistant editor of this magazine, I'm going to appoint you as our LACMTA reporter and your main assignment will be to tell us all about the Nabi 60 BRT's (warts and all! - and I understand first hand that there are some warts!).

We'll look forward to your astute observations.

The Port of Authority,

In regard to the 60 BRT's; I had mentioned in another forum that I had occasion to meet an LACMTA driver while waiting on line at my local super market.

I struck up a conversation which opened with the question; "how are the Nabi 60 BRT's coming along"?

A roll his eyes answered me adequately enough, but he went on to say that the suspensions are a big bug, and that Nabi is doing very little about it!

I'm wondering if they'll ever reach the twelve year life expectancy that they were designed for!

If they don't, they better start bringing back all the mothballed RTS's for another round! (I hoped they saved them!).
