#These were the first Rabbit Express buses, running on the 83N. These buses have likely been retired, replaced by the MCI Motorcoaches.
*These Gillig BRTs were purchased used from Mountain Metropolitan Transit in Colorado Springs, CO. They originally were for the FREX (Frontier Express) service, but were sold when the service had financial issues. Rabbit purchased 9 of these vehicles, but it appears that a few may have been sold again to other agencies like New Castle Transit in New Castle, PA.
