Interesting........

On Eyewitness News at 11 (ABC) Friday evening, there was a quick "run through" story on the Hoboken PATH station closing for a month for much-needed repairs.

Footage showed people boarding an MCI on the #126 (I always associated transit-type buses with this line)

What really caught my eye was a recent-model Van Hool (no company logo visible in this footage I watched) bearing the legend "PATH SHUTTLE BUS"; am wondering now what company supplied this bus.....could it have been an "ACADEMY" coach?

Further:

Saw the aforementioned clip again over the weekend; I am now leaning more towards that recent-model VAN HOOL being an "ACADEMY" coach..........

Well, yeah...that's obviously an Academy Bus from that link to Academy itself, but I meant a link to the news story you referenced...
