us they are willing to take an express bus if there was Wi-Fi and more

will be easy to spot, as they are candy-apple red and silver, with "VTA
Express" and "Hybrid" written on each side.
The VTA is taking a
cue from Yahoo, Google, Cisco and Apple, Silicon Valley titans that
contract with private bus lines to ferry workers to their campuses in
plush, worker-friendly buses.
