3489 was on the route 59 today, it was due to leave Bell's Corner loop at 1.32 P.M. but the operator told us not to get on, he was taking out of service because too much exhaust was getting inside of the vehicle. As it pulled away, a lot of thick, black smoke was coming out from the back. Sad. I hope that I didn't miss my last chance for a ride on it.

7217 was on the 22 this evening - it has a horrendously sqeaky (which is an understatement) joint section - what is causing that - shouldnt it be lubricated or something? It sounded like something being tortured.

On the other hand, remember that rear wrap 5151 has? Fortunately 5657 has been wrapped entirely in that similar rear wrap style, and boy does it look awesome! I wonder if 5151 and 5140 will be completely wrapped (it is possible that 5151 was thrown out into service before it was finished - it didnt have any other ads.

Keep a look out for Frontier's "wired" bus, which i believe to be 5661.

Oh yeah, and 5664 has LED front turn indicator lights for some reason - I wonder if all the new flyers will get this, that is separate from the overhaul program.

Saw 3431 working the R bus this afternoon on the 13:15 trip from Bridge-Pratt to Wissahickon. Never thought that my potential last ride on a Neo would be on the R.

The 5400's that completed VOH are getting LED turn signals and reverse lamps as part of the overhaul. I'd guess that they didn't have the other type of lights for 5664...

3484 was on Route 59, block 1. This driver has had a Neo the last three days in a row. Also today, 3420 was broken down at Bustleton & Bleigh with a "No Passengers" sign up.
