WMATA ordered its first New Flyer and first CNG buses of any kind in 2002. They have all operated from the Bladensburg Division for the duration of their service lives. These buses were rehabilitated in 2008 and 2009, at which point they were repainted in to the "MetroLocal" scheme. They were retired upon the arrival of the XN40 buses in 2016.
WMATA ordered 25 C40LFR buses in 2007. These were the first buses to appear in a "MetroExtra" scheme of any kind, though it isn't the scheme that is currently being used. As these buses were rehabbed in 2015, they were repainted in to the current "MetroExtra" and "MetroLocal" schemes.
