(WMATA Metrobus) 2006 New Flyer D40LFR #6148
To my viewers and subscribers I apologize that it’s taken so long for me to upload a new video but I’m back with another ride on a WMATA D40LFR. This ride was incredible as we went from hauling ass on I-395 to winding through suburban streets in VA during some heavy rain storms all while on a fantastic sounding unit so I hope you’ll stick around for this video on the full ride from Pentagon to GMU.
Route: 17G
Direction: SB - Pentagon T/C - George Mason University
Powertrain:
Cummins ISM Engine
Voith D864.3E transmission
Division: C - Cinder Bed Road

Here’s a ride video on board one of WMATA’s 2006 NFI D40LFRs. During the Orange/Silver Line shutdown they sent out a lot of units from different divisions in the system to run shuttle buses. I got the chance to ride one of the LFRs that was recently moved to Cinder Bed division in Virginia which was a rarity for me to see in this part of the region. These buses are still running strong but are ...
