The Orion 5s actually retired the year before the 2011-13 New Flyer C40LFs arrived, and the c40lfs had the same bus numbers, except for 185-399. But, I personally like the 1994-96 Orion Vs, it was a huge improvement than the 1993 Orion Vs

That Orion 05.501 when it starts the engine, it sounds the same as the Novabus RTS from 1996-1999.

@AweShiyte 7 жыл бұрын

I remember when I rode the bus for the first time. It was them Long Island Buses and the sound of those buses have stuck to me ever since then. Hell, if you could give me a sound of them driving off to their destination, I would tell you it's one of them out of the blue.

In my opinion about Flxible, If NYCT would've got approved for Flxible and were survived in business after 1995, then they probably would have the same awkward feature as Chicago CTA, such as Front Door.

Awesome video, bro. I remember Pierce Transit in Tacoma, Washington had the 40' 1994 CNG Orions, and Whatcom Transit in Bellingham, Washington had the 35' and 40' diesels. Ironically though, they had the same serial numbers: 800.

@dodge1515 5 жыл бұрын

Yes, half of the CNG powered Orion Vs were killed off by the C40LFs. The other half were mostly killed off by the Orion VII NG CNGs, Orion VII 3G CNGs, New Flyer XN40s, and New Flyer XN60s @ NICE/ MTA L I Bus.

I think I know why they change the Orion v fleet numbers, maybe they changed to 1305,1306, because, maybe the c40lf took there current fleet numbers.

It's very risky to preserve a CNG powered bus because the CNG tanks after they expire it's very hazardous and considering the situation they're currently having with the CNG powered RTS 4904 I guess they decided not to take that risk again
