An extended mini-bus, is that 30' or 35'? Also, 9.6 million timetables? Wow, I never thought about how many they actually needed.

I don't think the CCT paratransit buses are owned by SEPTA.

CCT already has new buses they are the same but they have that stainless steal front grill. You guys probaly have not seen them but they way out in the burbs. Right they are a few of them and It is a rarity seeing these.
