I've been talking to a friend about the Idea of a high floor bus with low floor area at the rear door recently. Never heard about this bus before but I have to admit, it's amazing
That's pretty cool. Very futuristic. But I am still a sucker for the D series with the stainless steel luggage bays like NJ Transit's commuter buses.
Old timer drivers swear by those stainless steel D series.
MCI = perfection
Im glad you like MCI as much as I do.
That bus looks exactly like actual transit bus
Elijah Johnson it is a transit style MCI commuter bus that can fit in the Lincoln Tunnel
Elijah Johnson I wonder who's going to get the first order?
Probably New Jersey Transit or New York MTA
I am with you Elijah. This sure would boost ridership. The ADA wiped out ridership on some major express routes and this bus would REALLY serve everybody. Long haul transit service for the able-bodied corporate employees and would help the major corporations stay out of trouble for if a corporation would want to look at investing in hiring people with disabilites. But sadly, you realize how much these big buses would cost?
Well well in a njtransit bus operator....let see y they buy this ones...cool
They did a really good job on that bus
Well that bus really looks really sharp I could see that bus being used as a commuter bus four areas that have longer trips going into a suburban area or from a suburban area into an urban area or from an urban area also that's good for handicapped people I think that's pretty cool very nice bus d-series needed an update
Those front doors remind me of my son on Microsoft Paint trying to make a square but it didn't quite come out right
I very much approve of this model in my city
I love the pocket seats when you first get on.
I could just imagine a fleet of D45 CRT LE CNGs in Long Beach Transit livery if the Regional Express routes are approved for the future
Hey. These would be a big hit for the transit companies. The public loved it here in St. Louis when we had similar buses. It is time we bug the living daylights out of our senators so that our transit systems would get funded big time. And if that happens, MCI would be hit with orders after orders for these.
New Jersey transit should purchase these buses for Camden newton Avenue garage if they can fit one in the garage
I hope we get them i Charlotte nc. We loved the demo bus for the time we tested it at CAT'S.
Love it.
Tank28 it is pretty cool but I like the old d series
Love the new look on the d series
Ausome Bus
thanks for checking out my bus video
Thanks for checking out my videos. Every comment like and subscription helps out !
Get rid of the front door... and integrate wheelchair with the stairs. Install the seat next to the driver. That's how I would build the bus if I work for MCI. :)
this thing is crazy good, good.. im sad to see the d series buses go, but wow this is a beauty
I never saw that model must be new .. MCI looks different now
This bus is a very good option for commuters indeed I Would by One of These after I buy a brand-new J 4500 for my business and one J 3500 the new 35-foot bus for my company and then I'll also buy this new bus when they are available
Where you at the MCI in Dallas Tx?
the RTS is back by a company that never even made the RTS i love MCI.
Great looking coach. Hopefully NYC orders these to replace all remaining 2001 thru 2003/2004 D4500s/102DL3s still in service.
I was actually in for a surprise not too long ago in White Plains. CT transit had a new D45CRT testing on route 971.
(Formerly I-Bus.
Stamford to White Plains express).
I have a short video of this as well.
There is an order for 307 express buses, with 50 buses for NYC Bus in the Staten Island Division, and the other 257 for the MTA Bus depots in Queens and The Bronx, which were once run by private bus lines.
@@TheRailLeaguer it's been three years since we posted these comments and those 307 buses are all in now. Thanks Prevost for not giving us the better and more stately H3 series instead.
Shame on you!!👎👎👎👎👎👎👎
@@milestone_achiever4634 What did I do?
@@TheRailLeaguerThat was simply an indirect message to Prevost that I wish the MTA could have persuaded them to make 307 H3 series instead of the X3s. I just like the H3 series way better that's all
😁
Bonito casi la misma forma del frente al modelo 2000
Wow thats a D model definately a commuter coach. Kinda looks like the G model specially made for Greyhound back in the day
This is radically different from EU Low Entry buses and coaches, here the whole front half is low floor. A good example would be the Setra S416LE Business. But I like how they did it with this one, a nice little comfy compartment for wheelchair users or people with a pram
Now if Greyhound wants to succeed, THIS is what they need to buy. But knowing Greyhound, they don't want to give up any luggage space for a drug dealer's luggage for a wheelchair. But if we want to boost ridership on our transit systems, THIS is the bus to get.
They will be making a version with out the bottom and rear door, that might be more appeal-able to first transit and greyhound
Streetcar1664 actually intercity bus ridership from upstarts has been on the rise for a while now. Metropolitan transportation systems are losing riders to cheap gas and they need faster buses and they need to take express services more seriously
Hopefully broward transit makes the purchase
Otherwise I guess this is the bus of the future
Hey dude
Chandler Arizona has these buses
I wonder if Houston METRO ever thought about getting one of these buses?
Chris Online I know right I've always seen the D Series models for downtown well hopefully they would do it but that means they would replace the old MCIs with Detroit 60 series engine 😪
Chris Online houston metro just got one
Wonder if GO transit is gonna get this one.
• Neøn • I don’t think so GO transit is replacing their old single-deck coaches with new double-decker buses
Mta now has it
Little's ron plays yeah I wish I knew where to find it but I have to take off work
Right now Staten Island Division has it, Brooklyn Division had it, after SI i think it's going to the Bronx Division
@@BusTVChan Man listen! Let them test that D45CRT on the BxM6 (Parkchester to 23rd street) for a few days.
Don't just have it linger in Brooklyn and Staten Island. Also Express routes in Queens deserve to have the D45CRT tested there as well

The mci d45 drt looks like the j4500
Any local orders yet?
Bruce Alarcon MTA Maryland or MTA NY?
engineersdash8 501 MTA NY
Ok Boi I guess sooner or later MTA Maryland will follow suit. Nice bus.
I wonder why they placed the headlights up so high. Not a fan of the look.
honestly the front bumper i hate it other then that what beaut.
It's nice but no head not good
what do you mean by no head?
you mean the head sign or destination sign?
Really not happy to see something like this exist. We should be willing to wait for the accessible lifts for more room and comfort for all. Riding low floors are not comfortable at all I do not care. I have riding experience and don't tell me otherwise. It's such a shame it has come down to this where something like that is designed, unfair to the accessible. That literarily is the luggage compartment area.
You and me both!
I dont like it tbh
Ok Boi I like the old d series
BusTV Chan same
I love these I can bring my scooter 🛴 on em more easily
@@BusTVChan anyone remember the Renaissance model? I have the original brochure from when that coach debuted in fall of 1998. Perfect design for the approaching Millenium at the time. Now 20 years later this D45 crt does not look much different from the Renaissance model. The D series was great for the early to mid nineties era. Now the D4500/102DL3 design out of date. The design is still a rectangle or box........no aerodynamics at all. Today, these coaches need to be sleek for fuel economy and minimize drag and wind resistance.
Like I always stress. Everyone needs to get with the times.
The ramp extends too far, and part of the aisle is too narrow.
