- Here's your opportunity to ride on a Translink New Flyer D60 (B3009) along one of the busiest corridor within the transit system - the 99 B-Line along Broadway! This bus is powered by a Detroit Diesel 6V92TA engine and an Allison HTB-748 transmission

Why cant buses be this good anymore
Engine powored this bus it équipped with à Detroit Diesel 6V-92TAC 253hp transmission alison HTB-748B -3speed
@@sebastienhenley9090 I know that
Man these 2 strokes sound so natural on these buses!
Well sadly for me I got into the hobby with buses too late. Ive never ridden in a bus with a 6V92TA engine. What I have missed!!! If I could find one of these to ride somewhere, I would ride it all day.
I like transit alot when I was a kid but my hobby for buses didn't start until 2012.
Good engines but they struggled when put into heavy buses. Bus had to be light for that engine to power, but it sounded hella good.
My hobby started in 2010
Oh I looooove this. It sounds just like samTrans 1990 NFI D60's and SF Muni's 1991 D60's.
TheCRTman AC Transit also with 1800-series D60s
Kevin Meno Yep, those were 1989 D60's. There seems to be 2 in LA at Transit Sales International.
I was just about to say that to,
AC Transit
@Steven Darkins Yep. Apparently a couple still exist. Also a ton of AC Transit 1800's in Texas.
They were amazing to drive...used to get them on my 160's, and 98 B lines.
NOW THIS IS WHAT A REAL DETROIT DIESEL NEW FLYER SOUNDS LIKE! Man I love these buses.
nutin like a 6v92 and an Allison HT transmission with a new flyer.omg
Infact I just was doing some research and apparently the D60s in Strathcona may have 6V92TA and B500R!!! (Strathcona is right outside Edmonton apparently)
@newflyer3000 - old comment, but no, this bus does not have the Allison B400R, it has the older HTB-748 Allison transmission.
I love the D60HF's that MiWay Transit has. I'm an Ontario transitfan lol!
Either an Allison HTB-748 (as San Diego Transit has with their repowered D60's) or B500R.
Nice video, I prefer the sound of the 6V92TA with the ZF HP-500. I guess it's because I grew up riding MT's D60HFs which had that combo.
Brings back memories when the buses here in Pittsburgh had these engines. They pulled most of 'em in favor of Hybrids now.
i dont want thse to get retaired! thses buses are still good to use!
I miss these buses. These buses are real with the Detroit diesel 6V92TA. (AC Transit) 1988 D35 2400-2428, D40 2500-2578 & 1989 New Flyer D60 1800-1829, (SamTrans) 1990 500-539 New Flyer D60 & (San Francisco Muni) 1991 New Flyer D60 9101-9124
that bus sounded real good!
this is music to my ears!
This bus is top teir
@lpcmidst128 I agree with you. Thats why they are my favorite engine because the sound very exotic and unique instead of a series 60 for example. I also have asperger syndrome so I tend to obsess about certain things. Although I kinda like cummins engines too. They have a pretty cool sound.
Yes. This is good.
Yes they are.
this bus is currently in Richmond
I like hi-floor buses
@6V92TA Thats very true. I like cummins engines to but detroits are cooler.
Nice video. Is there possible to ride a faster route on higher speed next time?
Are these d60s still running
No, they are retired. They were retired 13 YEARS AGO.
This bus makes alot of RPM man that aint normal in The Netherlands
I remember listening to this for the first time, I lost it at 1:44
Well the Detroit Diesel era has ended in Philadelphia with the retirement of 200 40-foot New Flyers equipped with the DD Series 50 engine and Allison B500EGR transmission.
Cummins killed Detroit
@@blount_man cummins suck. Detroit Diesel equipped with either a Allison or ZF added personality to a transit buses. These Cummins motors make you feel like youre boarding long yellow buses.
@@daniel022209 Exactly. I wish Detroit would make a come back to the transit market. The only Cummins I like in a bus wiuld be the ISM or ISB.
@@blount_man i heard they still make engines but for motorcoaches unfortunately.
@@daniel022209
Series 60 is alive, but modern buses are so heavy that the power rating wouldn't be worth the purchase.
lol an 6V92 and B500R would be wicked
Yeah but there is a problem about that bus with 6V92TA and B500R, it's retired. So that is not out of the question... =(
@ShinHolyAyato If you listen to a detroit diesel and a cummins you can hear a difference.
Wouldn't that be the Allison HTB-748 and not the Allison B400R5 ?
Probably Allison B400R.
@Dalek0122 Whats wrong with the sound of a 6v92?
is this bus powered by cummins ISL 330 HP?
Not sounding like that it ain't.
Cummins don't whine.
They grumble.
Wait, what did I say again that made my comment had a -7?
they copied wmata!!!
How?
They weren't the only ones using 6v92s in buses.
I hate this sound!
oh yeah! well, it does sound rather ugly :\
It's an old worn out bus so yeah, it's gonna sound rough.
