God I miss this sound

[@milestone_achiever4634]

I remember taking these on the Bx9 up Kingsbridge Terrace. They were terrible on steep hills.
Series 50 has so much more power

[@tommynunez1495]

I remeber these buses would take forever to climb the Ogden Ave Hill on the BX13. The series 50 would do it in half the time.

[@nah_144]

Best sound recording ever!

[@amuroray1085]

This sounds like the type of bus that if you didn't secure a seat you gotta hold on to something extra tight.
Like NJT's first batch of RTS with the C8.3.

[@theaverageguy7111]

This would be a perfect sample for a game. The quality is excellent.

[@TransitIslandExtras]

for roblox RTS makers, this would save their buses from 1987

I rode the 1987 GMC RTS bus on the B46 going to Kings Plaza with my mommy since I was 7 years old in June of 2004.

[@kalelc1996]

Me too and its TMC not GMC

[@nickrod9526]

I used to ride the B41 to either Kings Plaza or downtown Brooklyn!! LMAO

[@knightclassic1]

B41/46 was from Ulmer Park, correct? I remember most of these 1987s were assigned at Ulmer Park in Brooklyn

[@dasmonellerbe7901]

I hear the operator clicking that pedal lol my kind of bus

[@knightclassic1]

This one sound more like later model TMC from 1992-93 model. More Vibrate. This 1987 got to be an Repowered.
