Given the amount of time tourists spend on the Strip in Las Vegas, it is reasonable for the double decker buses that operate along “the Duece” route along the city’s most famous street to be the bus model that transit fans associate with Sin City.  In fact, Las Vegas is one of six transit agencies in the United States to operate double decker buses.  However, the majority of the Las Vegas bus fleet is made up of New Flyer buses with just a single level.  Although many visitors to Las Vegas never venture far from the Strip (if at all), Las Vegas has one of the most extensive “night bus” networks in the United States due to the 24 hour nature of the casinos and hospitality industry.
