currently on the D10 bus #7184 towards Kennedy center the ac does not work at all. Wmata please fix these Ac issues before the actually summer starters especially on those Xd40s its 95 today and this bus feel likes toaster! smh wmata do better
in my opinion Wmata has a slow process of entering there new busses into service. Here is the new XHE60 flash bus the first of its kind in Ride on‘s history. it makes me wonder why didn’t Wmata try the hydrogen route also since northern won’t open until 2029 NW DC may not even see any xe60s xe40s and novas until 2030 anyways
not to rant but wmata should have kept the 74 concept .. up to pethworth and down to buzzard point we didn’t need a replacement of the EM-LP and US circulator.. need some changes soon because this sucks been at eastern market for 45 minutes and it’s raining …
it’s time we have a real honest discussion about the 2019-2023 Xd40s these busses suck in the summer time the AC only stays in the front. when it comes to these busses if it’s hot outside it’s a metal toaster in the back the 60 footers are ok when it comes to there Ac but these 40 footers are the worst during 80 plus degree weather wished wmata would look into these and do something about the Ac on these busses because it’s only gonna get hotter !
when will the old Lfas be phase out and when will the new Xde40s come into service. does anyone have any info on the XE60s the haven’t been in service since September because of a battery recall not sure how long that works out
