Shots from the new bus in Paradise

Today B-Line assigned the new Orion buses to general routes including the 40 Route going to Paradise. One of the best photography platforms I've experienced, riding the new buss is almost like riding a living room on wheels. In the lower section, the passengers conversed as though in a friend's living room.
It may be because of the newness of the buses, but there was a much better feeling on the new buses than on those they will augment/replace. These buses may make the daily commute much more convivial.
