The loudest buses in New York City, hands down. More specifically, the loudest buses in The Bronx and Brooklyn. To me, these weren't just a bus, these were my childhood memories.

Watching this just made me tear a bit. I remember riding these buses in my childhood. These buses are more than just buses. I’ve had a lot of memories on these buses. Some of them I will never forget. As a 2005 Baby, it’s crazy seeing these disappear in 2019. Watching this really does give me a throwback. RIP the Orion VII OG CNGS.. 2002-2019

This was the first MTA Bus I’ve ever seen in my life back in 2009. It was my favorite as it ran on the Bx17. But now that I know they’re gone, I will always remember the 2002-2004 Orion VII CNG’s. So I’m now replacing it with the 2008-2010 Orion VII NG HEV. The 2002-2004 Orion VII CNG’s will always be in my heart. They will remain there for the rest of my life. 😀😓

Back when MTA busses were natural sounding

Alternate title: 57 minutes of Detroit Diesel Series 50 MK-G sounds. Man do I just love that exhaust sound.

Those were the good old days man...I miss em 😢

Despite not riding them, I do have to admit, when I was little, I used to be afraid of those buses. But now that I was a bit more older, I grew out of being scared, and I started to love these buses. The Series 50G engine was the one that made these buses roar, and will always be the best CNG engine. Also 7691 and 7746 were the first units to be tested for repowering. The first repowering was with the Cummins Westport ISL-G engine, and were also refitted with Allison B400R6 transmissions, to see if this could be a sucess. Then later on, they were repowered again, but this time with the Doosan GL11K engines. Surprisingly, I only caught 7746, and it was the Doosan powered one, before it was retired. Basically, I think the Repowering proposal didn't seem to work, since that it may cost the MTA money for the repowering, plus they should better off just repower one bus with the ISL-G, and the other one with the Doosan engine, to compare which engine is best. However, that is just my opinion.

I miss how these sounded hecka loud and throaty when the VII was still up and running. Fortunately I was able to enjoy their cousins from Georgia and California

R.I.P to the 2002-2004 Orion VII CNGs foreal, especially 7560-7684. MTA should've preserved some of them.

Watching this makes me tear a bit because I seen this a lot as my childhood

I really wanted MTA to restore one or two of these buses

I remember going to my aunts house and riding these or the early c40s on the B35 last time I rode this bus was at a bus route at The Bronx majority already consisted of xn40s

I miss seeing these on the B103

Back in 2013/14 ish i saw a flip dot version of this bus and ion know why i thought that the 50g didn't fit with this bus i only saw the clear hybrid versions

They should put one of them for a museum fleet

These buses are the goat 🐐 man nyc changed

I miss seeing these in Jackie Gleason

The best buses in Brooklyn :( miss riding them on the B43 😭😭

I always hear them passing in my house and it's a long block away

Yes, I was waiting fir this video! Awesome! I love and miss these buses. They are all my all time favorite

This bus is nice i like this bus Orion Vii CNG 2002 and 2004 they will bring this bus back

CNG Buses are my favorite .

The fact is DD50-MKG engines are loud Especially on Orion 7 CNG

MTA needs to preserve one of them

Great video man

Atlanta’s MARTA had these but numbered 2101-2160 with original Series 50G. And ones with cummins c gas plus were numbered 2161-2190

I got the bus stop right at my house so convenient for enjoyment ,2019 Jan the MTA moved bus stop over so if I catch a bus I'm lucky cause they even more quiet rather hear the beep beep beep and the air compressor when it's kneeling been at this location since 2010 Jan still here at beach 115 street 2020 I have the Q22 Orion vii 2 ND gens ,Q53 SBS NewFlyer Excelsior XD60, THE S train The A train and the train yard😍👍🏽

Like your video wow😭 two amazing buses gone my childhood buses are gone

In one of the scenes, there were 2 orion v s that were from one of your videos.😂😂😂

At least the NG hybrid buses are not retired

R.I.P orion vii with CNG.

Retired already? Dam the GMC RTS's seemed to have lasted MUCH longer than these. These appear to be in great shape to go to mothballs. What I fondly remember about these is the torque! I believe there was an issue with the excessive torque and passengers falling as a result upon their debut. Correct me if Im wrong but I believe it was THIS model right here.

Amazing

I’m just patiently waiting for that D60 Compilation..

My town used to have those but not anymore they used to be in Bakersfield long ago

With these buses i knew a Bx15/21/35 was coming, now i dont hear them anymore. :C

I ride this bus on the B35 local and limited in the old days

These buses should last at least 40 years in service since they're CNG

Y'all remember 7596. One of the only blackbacks of those types that I've seen in person.

I miss em on my B68!

Can you do a video on the 06-07 OG Hybrids & 09 Hybrids?

It was really no issue with those models!

7:58 what the hell was he hiding from

30:40

These busses are still existing

51:56 how does a west farms depot do a F line in queens 🤔

I think the c40lfs will need to rule over the lines the orion v s had done.

They should have sold them instead of scraping them

Vroom Vroom POP POP backfire

hii

Repower the buses by changing the engines and turbo chargers it will run more faster than before!

Idk
