The Designline Eco-Saver IV Hybrids will be going to Michael J Quill Depot. 5 will be running on the M42 along with some other routes.

A 35ft version of this bus was tested and it was successful, hence allowing the order of the new Designline buses.

About 30 or so buses will be at MJQ with the possibility of knocking off some of the TMCs that they have. Only up to 8 buses will be here by this year and running in service.

Engine and Transmission specifications are as follows

Capstone C30 MicroTurbine
Bosch Rexroth 120kW Traction Motors

This is by far the most quiet hybrid out in service today. The Orion VII OGs & NGs are noisemakers compared to these buses.

More videos will come as soon as I find out where else it runs! Stay Tuned!

    That guy in the yellow shirt, was he an employee of the company that built the bus to see if it was running well?
