Check out our Buses: Artie, Archie, Arthree, and Arbie!
Why do we Name our Buses?
Organization & Personification!
Simply put, each bus has a unique vibe, so the names help the NLBT Team, Drivers, and Customers alike differentiate.
These are also buses we have put very much of our own time & effort into - they're not "just buses" to us.
Also, people tend to treat things better when they have a name - it is our hope that passengers will treat our buses with care & respect while on board!
