L.A. Transit Metro Local / Metro Rapid Liveries for New Flyer Xcelsior XD40 and XD60 by KV12sprchg

This skin pack will turn the XD40 bus mod into real life Metro Local buses driving around Los Angeles / Los Santos, in Los Angeles they actaully use XN60 Natural Gas version of the New Flyer Xcelsior without a back window. however this this is the model availble this is the one we will use. These skins goes well for Bus Operator role play (Bus Sim V) especially if you have mods like 5Real and LARevo2.0!

Version 3.1 - All liveries now have accurate bus numbers that is currently in LA Metro's fleet. Added Metro Rapid Liveries for the XD40 / XN40 with accurate LED Signboard routes and numbers. The Metro Local LED Signboard is updated with White LEDs.

Version 3.0 - Removed Liveries without Ads. Reworked all liveries and added an extra one for XD40. Added LED signs from actual L.A. Bus lines (Credit to 5Real) XD60 and its bendy trailer also had its textures reworked too.

Version 2.0 - Added 1X Metro Local Textures for the XD60 Bendy Bus, one with Ads on the side of the bus (Default) I also included a version you can add without adverts as well in *.PNG format.


Version 1.0 - Modified Bus.ytd with 3X L.A. Metro Local and 1X Rapid Liveries, the seat fabric and Window Graphics has also been changed. Plus 7 additional *.PNG textures you can replace if you prefer the busses not to have ADs. This MOD only changes textures for the regular length DX40.
