Description:

The Rapid Transit Series (RTS) city bus is a long-running series of transit buses originally manufactured by GMC Truck and Coach Division during 1977, in Pontiac, Michigan. First produced in 1977, the RTS was GMC’s entry into the Advanced Design Bus project (the other entry was the Grumman 870 by competitor Flxible) and is the descendant of GMC’s entry in the U.S. Department of Transportation’s "Transbus" project. The RTS is notable for its then futuristic styling featuring automobile-like curved body and window panels. That design has become a classic, though remains more contemporary as that of its predecessor, the GMC New Look which had a curved windshield, but flat side glass and body panels. Most current buses are now made by specialized coach manufacturers with flat sides and windows.
