The MBTA’s New Articulated Hybrids are SOMETHING… (Ride & Review)

Happy Birthday to Yoshi! Wish Yoshi a happy birthday down in the comments! 🎂 🥳
Welcome Back! This was a special video. In this video, while I was on my way to South Station to complete some routes and variants for the series in the making of “Yoshi’s Adventure: The Sequel” & “Yoshi’s Ride Series: Revamped”, I unexpectedly caught the new silver line buses running on the Silver Line SL3! This was during a Saturday afternoon, so it wasn’t too packed, but was filled with good amount of traffic. Hope you all enjoy this!

Happy Birthday Yoshi! 🎉 Man that new XDE60 looks clean, especially the new announcement display signs!

[@Yoshiistic]

Thanks! It does look interesting.

[@bobbobboston4778]

The 1300s literally are copies of the 1200s, they’re both XDE60s. The 1300s just have extended range batteries to run in the transitway, and bike racks. Plus the 1300s have a much smoother ride than the 1200s, but the suspension will eventually crap out just like it does on every other New Flyer bus lol

[@Yoshiistic]

Exactly!

[@dollo3077]

Happy birthday man

[@Yoshiistic]

Thanks!

[@yoshiistic2]

Let’s go, my man posted!

[@Yoshiistic]

Yessir!

[@rondeezothebusandrailfanner]

Happy birthday Yoshi and the XDE60s actually have the 9.0 liter Cummins engine.

[@Yoshiistic]

Ohh, that makes sense.

[@MasterPurplePilotCNG]

happy late birthday Yoshi
I got a question, what's the longest route you've ever rode?

[@Yoshiistic]

I’ve ridden almost every single long route, but I probably would say the 134.

[@Yoshiistic]

And thanks!

[@GuyInUrSnackCabinet]

Silver line should be replaced with light rail,period.

[@YoshiisticGaming]

Sounds like too much copying, man…

[@Yoshiistic]

Honestly…
