Following the unexpected and sudden retirement of the Champion cutaway buses after those buses caught on fire, Ride On took possession of WMATA's 30 foot Orion Vs. WMATA had already retired these buses from its own fleet at the time Ride On partially repainted them in the new blue/yellow/green Ride On scheme and renumbered them to fit the county's fleet numbering system. They remained in service with Ride On until the fall of 2014, when a new order of 30 foot Gillig Advantages arrived, leading to the ex-WMATA Orion units' retirement.
