This seems like a new number, but after almost 18 months of bus blogs, hard to really tell. Perhaps an archive dive would reveal a re-occurrence? Whatever.This post belongs to yesterday - work continues to bear down and eat up blogging time. Tacky, eh? Anyway, when we got on the bus yesterday it evidenced a lack of that human aroma that lives so strongly in bus seat upholstery. Clean, fresh, well-scrubbed air circulated throughout. Not to be confused with "new bus" or "new car" smell - this felt like the aftermath of a serious Merry Maids attack. So refreshing, Dave commented to the driver who acknowledged the pleasant atmosphere - and this driver never volunteers anything! I surmised an upholstery shampooing took place but neither Dave nor I could feel any moisture on the seats. The fresh bus smell combined with the scent of orange blossom that prevails right now - an aromatic delight! When we got off the bus, Dave discovered his pants seemed a tad damp in the pertinent seating parts - appears we did owe the fresh scent to upholstery cleaning!
Image certainly needs no explanation.

Well how shall I put this?
Afraid you've commented on bus 4154 at least twice - on 12th January 2006 and 27th December 2006 - the vehicle appears to be a 2000 Eldorado National 30' EZ-Rider (LNG) (9 buses of this precise type in service with Valley Metro) (Fleet numbers 4146-4154)...there are a whole heap more of similar model....
Sometimes it's really great what you can pick up from Google...other times it's rather sad!
