4520...my old stalker. As much as I dislike those lawnmowers, that one I'll miss. Oh well, it's time to move on. They were too crowded anyway.

The Dorados may not have been anywhere near the best buses in the region, but they have certainly been fun to ride. Plus, they were something that's not a New Flyer...a source of fleet diversity that will disappear.

Frontier Eldo's 4528, 24,37,40,73 and one more were scrapped replaced by 5929 and other flyers not sure of numbers but will post when I find out more
Do not forget 4552 and 4581 as well, both of them were retired. We just could not confirm it!
My eyes must be playing tricks on me!!

I guess that means a few more Remixes "sneak in" on the 92? Nice...

The retirements of the El Dorado's came as a surprise to me. I don't want to start the "what replacing what?" thing again I would like to see Orion win this one and make a 30ft hybrid NG low floor fleet of buses.

Remember that on another forum topic, SEPTA will not replace them with new 30 footers as the last order of 100 hybrids from the 2007 order of 400 hybrids will replace them.

4519 isn't scrapped. It was on the 98 or the 310 yesterday and was turning into Willow Grove Mall doing its first run.

I'm thinking 310, it's certainly not assigned to Frontier.
