I had quite the illustrious transportation career in the Seattle area before moving here, as the lead road supervisor for the largest para-transit company on the West Coast, for several years. I moved on to a non-profit called HopeLink and supervised the terrific free Shopper Shuttle program in Kent, WA.
This E450 was one of our work horses and it’s interesting to compare it to our fleet of Ford chassis buses here in Idaho, seven years later.
The wheelchair lift was in the front…
The seats weren’t anywhere near as comfortable as they are here.
And the cockpit with it’s little Nextel seems pretty plain. (Ours now)

It was, and still is, a great bus service!
