The MBTA Fire Bus
So there is this bus out at Charlestown/Bennett Garage, Flyer (no, not New Flyer, Flyer Classic) #9471. From 1982 until about 1996 it was a regular transit bus. It was then transformed into its current incarnation. It acts as a mobile recooperation center for firefighters at the scene of a major fire. It has deluxe AC and "heat reflecting shades". Pretty cool, huh?

That bus is no longer available.
I heard the bus pretended to be a train for one day, claimed a permanent flat tire, and is now receiving a train's pension for life.
But that's okay, the bus is a hero.
that is awesome
