  • Metrobus' fleet consists of 1,480 buses covering an area of 1,500 square miles (3,900 km²) in Washington, D.C., Maryland, and Virginia. There are over 300 bus routes serving 12,216 stops, including 2,398 bus shelters. In fiscal year 2009, Metrobus provided more than 133 million trips. During 2010, Metrobus had 123.7 million trips. On a typical weekday, it provides more than 400,000 trips.
    Metro is currently in the process of having 203 New Flyer LFA, BRT style buses delivered. These new buses will be painted in a Red/Silver (Local) and Blue/Silver(Express) paint scheme. 38 of these 203 buses will be painted in the Express paint scheme while the other 165 will be painted in the Local paint scheme. Metro is also currently in the process of repainting its current buses into the Local and Express paint scheme. Red/Silver painted buses will be used on local routes and Blue/Silver buses will be used on Express routes. These buses will have either "local" or "express" on the top of each side of the bus for easy identification. The numbering represents its region of operation. To differ the regions numbering system, Maryland letter is (prefix) to the route number and Virginia letter is (suffix) to the route number. For example: C22 (Maryland) & 15L (Virginia).

    Back in the 80s/90s and into the 2000s WMATA largely operated with Flxibles, some Rohr, MAN articulated buses, and even some leftover 60s GMC New Looks. They purchased some newer GMs which were universally poor with AC constantly breaking down and with minimal overhead circulation and worse, made a purchase of some Neoplans which sometimes caught fire. Neoplan may work in Europe, but in DC, they were a total disaster. It's nice to see that WMATA has gone the New Flyer route since I moved out of the area.
