Muni of the Future, Today

Orion Hybrid Prototype

J.B. Davis snapped this photo of a sleek, new Muni bus sitting at one of the bus yards. Here’s what J.B. had to say about the bus:

Guess Muni were testing this new thing out, but after speaking to someone who works at the yard, it turns out the refueling box (top) is too big and the bus wont clear the standard garage/bus washes. Looks a hell of a look better than the current hybrids SF has.

We agree. And, too bad. We’re ready for the future to arrive, already.

Bring Your Own Seat While Waiting For Muni

Some people aren’t satisfied with the seating options at Muni stations. They’re taking the matter into their own hands. Rider Jayne sent us a photo of a guy with his own seat at the Van Ness station…

Kind of reminds me of this photo that we’ve seen before of a man waiting for the bus on his own comfy seat:

And this sodden couch for anyone waiting for the 22-Fillmore:

Or if you’d like to swivel around while you wait…

Some people aren’t satisfied with the seating once they get on the bus…

Wow. Well, I guess even though Muni seats are less gross than BART seats, you can never be too careful!
