A FESTIBUS for the Rest of Us!

December 21, 2016

 

This past Monday, for the first time ever, SEPTA publicly showcased its holiday-themed buses as part of the Philly Holiday Festival. SEPTA FESTIBUS kicked off its first year at Blue Cross RiverRink Winterfest, bringing holiday cheer to guests and giving the bus operators a chance to show off their impressive decorating skills.

Each year, SEPTA bus operators celebrate the season by working together to decorate one bus from each of the Authority's eight bus districts. They volunteer personal time to work on the buses and use donations from coworkers for supplies. The yearly competition is a SEPTA employee favorite, and this year FESTIBUS brought the fun to the public.

Check out the decorated buses that were on display at FESTIBUS and try to pick your favorite (it isn't easy):

 

Victory District - Frozen

 

Southern District - Southern Express

 

Midvale District - Christmas with Rudolph and Friends

 

Midvale District - Chuck's Holiday Ride

 

Frankford District - Philly Pride

 

Comly District - 'Twas the Night Before Christmas

 

Allegheny District - Star Ride

Make sure to keep an eye out -- these festive buses are now in service!

Happy Holidays!
