This is a fantastic contract in product sale as well as geographic location. I'm wondering where you saw their fleet is 510 busses. I could not find this.

I believe it is Orange County Transit, LLC (New York)... not be mistaken by Orange County Transportation Authority (California).

As always davewho, great background. Maybe more than just a bus contract "in dem der hills" of Orange Couunty New York State. We'll have to wait on that one, but there does seem to be synergies between Dyment and Mensch that could be exploited. I rather like the man's reputation and connections in NY State! One wonders where that might take us.

Don't know how many buses will be equipped and how big the fleet is. Withheld for competitive reasons? https://www.orangectytransit.com/services
