The Neoplan AN460 is the 60-foot articulated version of the Neoplan Transliner, a series of single-decker transit buses introduced by Neoplan USA in 1981 and built until the company declared bankruptcy in 2006. Depending on the model and length, seats were offered for up to 65 passengers in the AN460 and its low-floor AN460LF variant. Transit agencies that bought it included the Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority, the San Francisco Municipal Railway and the Southeastern Pennsylvania Transportation Authority, which ordered 155 of them between 1998 and 2000; about 60 high-floor examples ran in Philadelphia until 2017 and Pittsburgh retired its last two in December 2019. Special versions included the shortened AN460RC built for New Jersey Transit and the DMA-460LF dual-mode bus built for the Silver Line of the Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority.
