During the past several days, Midvale has received 10 (8221-8230) hybrids which were previously resting at Germantown depot. These buses are being placed on a wide vareity of routes operating out of Midvale. It's unclear how many buses Midvale will receive, but it's clear these units will replace a good amount of NABIs operating out of midvale. According to Buswizard these units are nothing like their predecessor in terms of acceleration " The acceleration was quick and sudden, like the 5600s and it felt like it had no 2nd or 3rd gear shifts (in speed), therefore giving it the feel of a trackless trolley.". We'll shall see....

Well now is time to get your last rides on the NABIS!!!
