It was quite elegant, nice new upholstery, climate control, GPS, LED clock and about 5 surveillance cameras in the new accordeon style CTA bus. Seriously, they are nice and I think the GPS controlled stop announcements are nifty.
Andreas. You have to get some SF Shield stickers and try to stick one,(or a few) on one,(or more) of these babies! (buses) THAT would be pretty funny! I remember when they first introduced those "Old" reticulated buses. I was still living in the city,and thats when they still had the Chicago Fests at Navy Pier,before they fixed it up so nice,like it is now. It was a real Pit back then.
