Reply to comment by AbsentEmpire in The best seat on SEPTA by lucasj

The plastic seats are way less scary, but all new busses means the classic voice will be gone. I like it way more than the tts the new busses have, but willing to say goodbye to it to remove fear of bedbugs and fluid-absorbing.

It was supposed to just be a retro fit project, many buses that had fabric seats were completely replaced by plastic bucket seats and kept going. It's a mystery to me why most of the bus fleet was retrofitted with just a few lines left untouched for years.
