Speaking of that who is after frankford?!
Heh...Southern.

I must give a chuckle because with the New Flyers, Southern got all of the good stuff (8000s, the 5600s when new, 5500s when new, 5400s when new, all of the 2002-2004 hybrids), and it would follow tradition if they get the X series.
I hope not. They have enough of getting the good stuff first let another depot get the new stuff first. Midvale, Comly or Frankford should get it.

Enough NABI's should be miled up for retire at Comly by then. At least 10 of them.
YEAH!! Comly needs some good stuff. Artics aside, Comly is rather boring. They need good stuff.
I mean, it seems every district has good stuff
Allegheny: main artic territory
Callowhill: K-cars, PCCII cars, ZFers
Comly: 7101
Frankford: E40LFRs, ZFers
Midvale: Artics, 5600s, ZFers, only city district with lawnmowers, 5251.
Southern: everything Brandon mentioned before. If only they got E40LFRs too. :(
Victory: 5600s, ZFER OVERLOAD, Kcars, N5 cars
Frontier: 5600s, ZFers, lawnmowers

Put the X series in Comly. Or Allegheny??

Off Topic: Also with Comly they barely wrap any of their buses too. 5482 has been the only on for a year.

On: The XDE40 or 41 to Comly before Allegheny, Since they will most likely be the first with the new artics. Comly needs something new to make them less boring

Hmmm I not ready to see the Xcelsior model hit the streets of Philadelphia since the DE41LFR model wasn't even given a chance yet.
