If this ad were to air in NYC today, it would be "MTA New York City Transit, MTA Bus Company, Long Island Rail Road, and Metro North Railroad, one system that gets you where you want to go" and feature the newer equipment, like the XN40s, XD60s, and the M7s and M8s

It was introed as the Blue Metrocard in 1993 with testing spreading to every IRT / IND / BMT and NYCTA / MaBSTOA buses along the way. Great video of course, man the Redbirds and the 80s, 90s..
