== Equipment == RTC currently operates mainly [[New Flyer Industries|New Flyer]], [[Alexander Dennis]] and [[Wright StreetCar]] RTV coaches for fixed routes, and mainly [[Ford E-Series|Ford Econoline vans]] for paratransit.

This livery was used from 1992 to 2001. In 2001, the second "stripes" livery came in three variants, with the second one being the primary livery. The RTC decided to abandon their teal and magenta color scheme and adopted a white, blue, and gold scheme with blue stripes with a cat running on a white base, white around the windows, moving the CAT logo to just above the first window on either side, under the windshield, and on the engine door (with the exception of the [[Neoplan USA|Neoplans]] which had the logo placed above the rear header). Prior to the arrival of the 2001 [[New Flyer Industries|New Flyer CNGs]] and [[Neoplan USA|Neoplans]], the RTC began repainting the fleet with the blue stripe livery. Once they arrived, the RTC approved a variant to the livery and instead of having just blue stripes, it became blue and gold alternating stripes with the logos in the same positions. The RTC then started repainting coaches with this new variant, leaving the already painted coaches with the 1st variant. This livery was used from 2001 to 2005 on the fixed-route fleet. It is the current livery for the RTC paratransit fleet, using the 2nd variant. Since 2008, a 3rd variant has been used by removing the running cat, having the stripes extend around the vehicle, and replacing the CAT logo with the RTC logo. In 2004, 10 [[Iveco Bus|Irisbus]] Civis coaches arrived for service on the new [[Bus rapid transit|BRT]] line, complete with a new [[Metropolitan Area Express BRT Line|MAX Line]] "bluenose" livery. It consisted of a blue base, with a white line that stretched the length of the coach, and with gold stars on the rear quarterpanels of each side. In 2005, the RTC again changed the livery, returning to the first "mountains" livery design using the new color scheme, extending the shapes to the bottom of the vehicle. This livery was only used on the 800 series coaches and on coach 654, and it was only used in 2005. A variant of this livery has the CAT logos replaced with RTC fleet logos on the sides of the coach. Later in 2005, the RTC received its shipment of 50 double deck [[Alexander Dennis Enviro500]] vehicles, painted in a third "goldbug" livery. This one consisted of an all-gold base, with a blue trim around the bottom, and the transit logo between both decks, under the windshield, and under the engine door. Originally limited to the double deckers, the RTC decided to adopt the "goldbug" scheme for new fleet purchases starting in 2006. For non-double deck vehicles, the CAT logo remained above the windows, but the RTC logo was added to the position where the CAT logo was in 1992. To date, only 2 vehicles that were already part of the fleet have been repainted in this livery variant (buses 571 and 725). The New Flyer 900 series vehicles were the last vehicles with this livery. In 2008, the RTC made a variant of the "goldbug" livery which had the CAT logo removed and replaced by a special RTC logo only used on these buses. Coach 702 has been repainted with this livery variant. In 2009, RTC commissioned another variant of the livery by replacing the special RTC logo with an "RTC Transit" logo on the sides and front of the coach. "Regional Transportation Commission of Southern Nevada" was placed near the bottom of the coach. New "No Right Turn On Red" and "This Bus Stops At All Railroad Crossings" stickers were placed on the rear. The numbers were moved to the right of the front and rear of each coach, and "''www.rtcsnv.com''" is placed on the rear either on the destination sign just under the screen or on one of the engine doors. In 2010, a new "goldface" [[Bus rapid transit|BRT]] livery was implemented with the [[Wright StreetCar]]s, which consists of a gold base with a blue stripe and a white stripe; the one-piece windshield is outlined in white.
