High-Floor Transit Buses

Conventional high-floor city transit buses, whose floor sits at the height of the wheel arches and is reached by steps at the doors, as built before low-floor and step-free designs became the standard. The Flyer D700, D800 and D900 series are typical members. An entry belongs here when its cited article calls the vehicle a high-floor or conventional transit bus, or places it in a transit bus series of that older step-entrance layout. It excludes low-floor and step-free buses, double-decker buses, intercity coaches and bus chassis. Entries are placed by what their own cited article says, so each one sits in the narrowest group its source supports, and the group page lists it beside the other members.
