The Metropolitan NY Bus Association (the funny bus club) ran a fantrip around the boroughs with two buses. We stopped at Manhattanville, College Point, and LaGuardia.

I was only 6 when the event happened. It was nice getting to see some Triboro coach action. I can still remember those RTS CNGs (used to catch them a lot on the Q23) and the Orion V CNGs (almost always one on the Q53). I will never forget the sound of the GMC’s roaring by.

Low floors destroyed the cool and comfortable experience. There were lifts too for the acessible. But everyone always want to save a couple of minutes. Edit: I really miss the RTS buses, they were my favorite.

This is beautiful. I wish you had clips of Jamaica buses Grumman 870s because some of them were still being used around this time of recording.

Thank you so much for this! I've always wanted to see footage of the Triboro Coach depot (now LGA depot)!

I trained out of the old 132 st Depot it was MABSTOA's main depot. Eventually transferred to Hudson Pier then 54 st before leaving for NYCTA in Brooklyn.

I was born before Triboro's takeover, I recall seeing one bus before the transition to MTABC. It's beautiful. This is like a time capsule

18:47 So that's what the interior of a Triboro MCI Classic looks like. For years I've been looking for photos of the interior of that particular bus. From the looks of it, it was no different from the Green Line buses.
