As far as I know, the sizes of the new shuttle and full-size buses are far from close. The regular, full-size buses are 40 feet in length. And according to the Union, the new shuttle buses are "only 10 feet shorter", which is 25% difference in length, compared to the full-size buses. 10 feet is 1.5 times the length of a big 8-person dinning table!
In my opinion, the Union is trying to make false impressions to the public about the sizes of the buses.
