I got an e-mail from former Sub/BusTalker RIPTA #40 - Blackstone Tunnel; he said the Gilligs have been in service for a while. I believe some 1990 RTSes are still in rush hour service. |

[The paint scheme on 9020 is hideous.]That, of course, is the previous RIPTA paint scheme widely used before the new scheme was introduced a number of years back. Although I liked the new scheme when first introduced, I don't think the prior scheme is all that bad. I will always associate it with the Volvos that ran in Rhode Island. |
