Detroit Diesel Series 50G vs Series 50 - San Diego Style
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 21 авг 2024
- Okay now for some fun. Which do you like better, Series 50G or Series 50EGR? Wish I could have done the comparisons with the same bus type, but here in San Diego just not possible. Sadly our 50G's are gone now here in SD, and the 50's here in "great" California are getting thinner. These sounds are disappearing.
Anyways post your vote and comment which you like better.
at 0:11 ... the "chuckle".
I used to love that sound when I was a kid!
1997 C40LF is scrapped 😢 I wish they come back!
On the D60LFs, the engines are actually DDS50EGR enginez
DD50 Diesel engines all the way. I do like the 50G and 50EGR variants though.
CNGs FOR LIFE! 50Gs FOREVER!
The diesel version has more torque
All Series 50. Detroit Diesel Series 50,50G,50 EGR and 50G EGR.
They had these fitted to the RTS06 city buses NYC and it sounds like this but also has a supercharger-like whine sound and a more prominent intake/exhaust "howl" sounds better than these
I love the RTS distinction. I don't like the 50G in the Orion 7 as much as in the C40, though.
The supercharger-like whine and exhaust howl was actually the Allison V731 transmission at work. THAT paired with the DD50 engines makes it sound like a beast, one of my favorite powertrain configurations followed by the DD50G/AWB400R and the DD60/AWB500R.
Who cares? It's all Series 50! I wish the recent New Flyer buses came with these engines instead of Cummins engines. (I live in NYC, which got the last C40s as well as a bunch of XD40s/60s and is set to get XN60s soon.)
Series 50/50G hasn't been manufactured since 2004
+Oregon Transit Fan I thought they discintinued the S50 Diesel
In Philadelphia, PA we can still hear them.
There are no more series 50's in SD as of 2015!
I like the S50G, but i'm gonna have to go for the S50 diesel on this one just listen to that growl it sounds beast
can't decide, I love both.
both equally. The DD50EGR in the artics sound pretty awesome.
Series 50!
Series 50
1997 New Flyer C40LF with Detroit Diesel Series 50G
2001 New Flyer D60LF with Detroit Diesel Series 50
Im going with the Detroit 50G
I know the 50G has Rings on it but im going for the 50 Because its more sounded like a DE40LF in DC
Rings?
@@jetstream454, sometimes the 50G engines will make a ringing or chirping sound when the bus accelerates. But from my first-hand experience, this only or mostly happened with CNG-powered Orion V and 1st Gen Orion VII buses, both of which also had Allison B400 transmissions.
Nice video. I am unsure which buses are diesel and which are CNG however?
cng buses have the huge hump on the top
