CATA Retires Its First CNG Buses
After 22 years of service, the Centre Area Transportation Authority (CATA), State College, PA, recently retired its oldest CNG-powered buses. Posing with one of the buses are, from left, CATA General Manager Louwana Oliva, Board Chairman John Spychalski and former General Manager Hugh Mose. CATA began converting its fleet from diesel to CNG in 1993 with the arrival of 16 CNG-powered buses from Bus Industries of America (now Orion Bus Industries) in Oriskany, NY. The last diesel bus left service in 2010, making CATA the first public transit system on the East Coast whose entire fixed-route fleet operates with alternative fuel.
