ATBW Theme Parks Transit

ATBW Theme Parks Transit is a transit system throughout ATBW Theme Parks in California and it is the only way to get into the theme park from the parking lot, as well as certain smaller sub-parks within the park. There were over 100 buses actively in service; with Flxible Metros, GMC/TMC/NovaBus RTSes, Gillig Advantages, Gillig Phantoms, Orion V's, and Neoplan AN440s in it's fleet, some of which as old as the late 1970's having operated for years. All of these buses are continuously serviced and inspected at a garage within the park past Pidoland. On July 22, 2022, ATBW Holdings LLC announced that all buses from before 2008 were being retired due to age and pollution concerns. The company began auctioning most of these buses on August 1, 2022, and more buses are set to be sold to make way for all electric buses.

A new emblem was made in 2010 to introduce a new gradient stripe around the buses, but many older buses from the 80's and early 90's still in operation still retained the red and brown stripes from 1987. Furthermore, most of these buses were given red grilles as well as red wheels and a drivetrain, including the driveshafts, differentials, axles, and even the air brakes.

EPTA At ATBW Theme Parks
Escade Corporation opened their subpark in 1990 within the park and launched a separate transit authority that same year under Escade Park Transit Agency (EPTA) in which visitors had to ride separate buses to get to Escade subparks within ATBW Theme Parks. The fleet of buses comprising this agency were Gillig Phantoms, Neoplan AN440s, and Orion Vs, running Detroit Series 50s, 6V92s, 6V71s, 8V92s, and 8V71s, or Cummins C8.3 and L10 engines, all while ATBW and Langile Corporation purchased Metros and RTSes that used some of the same engines at the time. There are also a few Flxible Metros that the park agency operated, but all of these are Metro D and E models and were supplied later in 1994 when ATBW Label Networks purchased Escade Corporation and began using the former's fleet for that agency as well, but retained the bright magenta stripe across the buses.

Ultimately in 1996, EPTA was merged into ATBW's main transit authority and they have since stopped purchasing any new buses for this separate agency, while using the already existing 30 buses from the former agency for Escade parks separately. Eventually, ATBW began buying buses originally used by them such as Orion Vs and Gillig Phantoms, but that those new buses would be labeled as ATBW instead and would be used throughout the entire park. In 1997, all former EPTA buses were rebadged with the ATBW nameplate, but in Pink instead of red.

Langile Express Transit
Langile Express Transit (LET) was formed in 1962 to serve throughout the restaurants and stores within the park while ATBW Theme Parks Transit buses would serve as buses to get to parks. These buses were painted white with a bright brown stripe bearing the Langile nameplates. These buses used Flxible's new look and GMC's new look, as well as the Grumman Flxible 870 and GMC RTS buses from 1978 and 1977 respectively. In 1981, this agency was merged into ATBW's park transit system and buses from both of these agencies began operation by transport between both parks and restaurants, though the Langile nameplate and brown stripes would be retained until 2003 when they were given the brown ATBW nameplate.

In June 2009, virtually all of the 120 buses of this former fleet retired and were therefore scrapped for parts, but a 1978 Grumman Flxible 870 bus was sold to Jon Woodlief at that time who kept the bus's original interior and the signature brown stripe. He eventually donated the bus to a museum who occasionally uses it to show up at ATBW theme parks for promotional purposes. A few other buses were also auctioned by transit enthusiasts who retain all of their original colors including the brown stripe and langile nameplate, and some other buses were donated to the Langile History Museum. The ones that remained in service (seven so to speak) had the stripe painted to red and the ATBW nameplate was also painted red, though these buses eventually retired in May 2013 and were replaced with clean diesel fuel buses.

Bus Fleet
The initial colors of the fleet in it's first operating year in 1956 were white with a brown stripe representing Langile Corporation, but in 1977 they were repainted to ATBW-Red or Beige with ATBW Red and Vibrant Brown stripes just below the windows. The latter was eventually given to all buses in 1983 following a voluntary decision by the company. Since 2010, all buses from that year and onwards are now white and have a red stripe with a beige gradient going upwards, but the previous 1980's design is still commonly found on many older buses in operation, though some of them have been repainted to the 2010 style as well.

Some of the older running buses had newer parts placed in after being purchased.

On July 22, 2022, ATBW Holdings CEO Takash Puterr announced that they would auction all transit buses made before the 2008 model year to eliminate unwanted taxes and costs of maintaining older buses. Most of the buses ranging from 1979 Grumman Flxible 870s to 2007 Gillig Low Floors were auctioned off, and most of the buyers of these buses were bus preservation organizations or private businesses providing transportation, while very few were sold to some major PBLOG companies. Almost all RTSes and Flxible metros had been sold to various preservation organizations, while the newer buses (Gillig Low Floors and Phantoms) were auctioned off to private shuttle agencies and other businesses.

By August 18, 2022, all but three buses had been sold and the company gained at least $45 million dollars as a result of the auction. The three last buses, all of which 2004-5 Gillig Low Floors, were sold to a private business and the sale ended by August 20, 2022.
