I remember seeing that picture along time ago. But I forgot the website.

The funny thing about New Flyer AND the bus is that it had side rubber guards on the side. I thought SEPTA would never order a bus with those on the side unless it did not interfere with the side ads. It came to me that; thats why I assumed SEPTA never purchased from NOVA. ALL of there models have those side rubber guards.

The side destination sign is to small and the I hate the way SEPTA is displayed those signs

The Sutrak on top makes it looks unique.

NewFlyerman5764, nice catch!

5401 Was the only one like that. 5402-5500 were delivered new with the Orange Signs, Thermoking A/C, and no rubber guards! 5401 was modified during early 2001 i believe! I can't believe how old these things are getting!

5401 is also unique for having three emergency windows on the Driver's side as opposed to the two windows for the production units.
