I know this topic is in here somewhere and I searched for it but couldn't find it.
What are the various bus manufacturers daily build numbers now?
I am curious if the American Economy has effected totals when compared to last year.
If anyone has an idea of where they were last year to today I would love to see those numbers to compare. Likewise it would be interesting to see where they were in 2001.
Was Corbeil building big buses in 2001?
Buses Built Per Day (April 2011)
Blue Bird - ? Thomas - ? IC - ?
Girardin - ? Collins - ? Thomas Minitour - ?
Also what are the forecasts for the total year. We keep hearing that numbers are way down compared to last year and heard the same from the manufacturers here at the recent OTE in Toronto.
I have to wonder if these numbers would be skewed slightly because of 2010 emissions. I know a lot of people ordered pre emissions buses, which probably put build totals through the roof, and after you couldn't order pre 2010 slowed them down. Just my thought on that, but I too am very curious.
