| MDT purchased 13 fully equipped MCI D4500 coaches in 2006. They came with motorcoach style interior including AM/FM/CD/DVD, LCD monitors, and power outlets. They were originally intended for the 175 Express route into Western Broward. When that did not work out, they were assigned to the 34 Flyer route from DLS to Florida City via the Busway. That has been a huge success as over 90% of the departures leave with a full seated load of 57 happy passengers. They are powered by the Detroit Diesel Series 60 and the Allison B500R transmission. |
