Nice animation but hydrogen seem to be a headache to deal with over just plugging in an electric bus. The maintenance -- which seems to be sat aside for a rainy day at any board meeting -- has gotta be a bitch. If the FTA is willing to give money to an agency to fund for... maybe... "two coaches," why not! But hydrogen fuel cell just doesn't seem to be worth the investment. Still like the ambition to find alternatives to diesel. Just make sure they have acoustic sounds.
The MTA Seriously Needs to get these buses.
Mta already have xclssior charge
Would be cool to have a mixed fleet of electric and hydrogen fuel buses.
I like diesel buses especially D40LFs
We need these in Vancouver
I think Calgary Transit should have these!
Yeah it would be a great addition to the fleet than those cng novabuses!
From the F40LF To an XHE40
This is such a good Idea, but is this bus available yet?
yes
@@jaketen2001 in NYC
@@Patchy682bestbus no. it is for sale though. about 40 fc buses in operation in CA. Not all New Flyer.
They have 5 in operation in NYC
Kelpyseal Wow, wish Chicago had some.
I wonder if MCI will use this technology on their Commuter Coaches.
It's the same company. NFI/MCI may use it.
Just wait for the Edition of Fantasy Coaches on MCI.
We’re working on that!
Electric buses seem like a wiser investment for agencies unless they already have a hydrogen station.
OCTA has a hydrogen filling station.
Marcopolo has some part is the New Flyer. I hope in the future see the New Flyer produce some Marcopolo buses.
I love new flyer!
I wonder why the need for these buses are less in Canada than the US
Hydrogen or electric, as long as there are zero emissions and less noise I'm all for it!
Make some electric low floors
0:59.
I like diesel buses because they sound better
Sara Reichler me too! Imagine how many buses will be breaking down if they start taking over our system
I know but hey why not use alternative diesel fuel for buses ( b100 or synthetic diesel fuel)
I like that turbo flutter
I have an electric bus but they retired wich is bus #2102 of CT cuz it caught on fire

Maybe efuel or hybrid-electric!!!
So many diesel foamers in these comments.
Go touch grass.
If I was in charge I’d buy ISL diesels in every bus hydrogen is a nightmare!
