Rapido N scale New Look bus now arriving

[Narlie]

My 3 are on the way. Anybody have any suggestion on source for N scale decals for transit companies?

I don't think there are any commercially available.  You probably will have to "roll your own" so to speak.

I have one on the way. I REALLY hope they follow this up with the RTS.

I am not by any measure a “bus fan,”  but these are really nice. Full interior and pre-wired headlights are awesome, especially considering the ~$30 street price. They’re a shoe-in for next year’s vehicle of the year award. My only complaint would be the clear-molded windshield wipers and framing. Some figures and interior lighting would really make them pop. Running lights would be nice, too. Hmmm…

I'm assuming Septa is in a future run?

I don't need any of these, but if they did one of the following I would have been all over it:

• DC Transit
• Metrobus (WMATA)

[bbussey]

I’m waiting for them to arrive at MBK.

They also left out the Chicago Transit Authority (CTA). It would not fit my layout era, but I would have bought one anyway- I used to ride them all the time as a kid.

Gave them a good look at the Ohio N Scale Weekend as several vendors had them available. I just don't think I want to tackle this paint scheme in N scale. Maybe I should try and find one of the HO undec kits from a while back. Spent a bit of time inside, outside and under these while at college.

If they were a little less expensive, I would get an extra pair of silver/unlettered and kitbash a Greyhound bus circa 1980.  They didn't have the rear commuter door on the right side.  But I will make two ConnCo buses circa 1959 from the blue-generic whenever I procure them, just have to paint the roof white.

Are the tinted upper "windows" printed, with no simulated window frames?  That would be disappointing if that is the case.

Ooph. Sure ‘nuff. Just a black line. <shrug> Always something…
