Thankyou those are my favorite SDM-5301's I drove the 3 generation fishbowls SDM's for Grayline tour but there was one 4501 SDM spare . So that waa cool
HAPPY 2024 KAL EL, GREAT TO SEE THE FISHBOWLS
Wow, nice surprise!
Yet another banger video Kal-el hope your feeling good and happy holidays.🎉
This review simply just shows why you’re one of the best MTA fleet reviewers to ever upload! Well done as always! I didn’t grow up with these but I can tell why they were so important to the NYCT fleet
Goodnight sir and thank you for making us another one of your great video sir. But this time you had took us back the past the late 1950's to the the early 1960's. This is when the MTA had started to graduated from the GMC Old Look Buses and the old School Mack Buses to GMC New Looks Buses aka the Fishbowl Bus. Some of them had came with AC's and some didn't. They where the Buses of the Future of that time.sir. I was very young when the MTA where still using them . But I had rode on them a few times as a Child and as a Adult when the MTA use to run on the Holiday Buses a few years ago. And welcome back Sir.
Nice
Excellent history. It brought back many memories. I thoroughly enjoyed it!
So out of left field, yet already enjoyable. Welcome back, K-man.
Great video
This was a suprise Great Review nontheless
Great video Kal!
Glad you enjoyed it
yeeeesssss awsome man just about to watch it but i know its going to be a great video. Keep up the great work and dont stop keep going back if you can in history and tell the story of these buses. Merry christmas man.
Youve out done yourself Kal!
Thank you thank you so much for this! The GMC fishbowl was so iconic, that at one point it was the US Standard bus for 25 years!!! Thank you!!! Can’t wait til u do a review for the flxible new look review
Use to pick the fishbowl up by flat bed trailer bring them to Chicago rebuild them and bring them back.
Welcome back man missed your reviews 🙌🏾
Feels good to be back stay tuned for more
At 2:44, my bus operator friend from FPD drove the GMC New Looks/ Fishbowls.
Omg they still have the older footage from the 60s
blud is back
This is by far one of the most interesting reviews I’ve ever seen you do! I never thought I would ever see anybody do a whole review on NYCs first ever fleet of GMC New Looks/Fishbowls, I also never knew that MaBSTOA formed in 1962 thanks to Fifth Avenue Coach Company.
Glad you enjoyed it! Stay tuned for more
Wonderful review. I remember correctly I used to travel on those buses not in New York, but in Harrisburg, PA. Those were the best buses in that state.
Didn't expect this! But well received!
Fifth Ave Coach Company buses 1-10 were renumbered 3211-3220 by MaBSTOA. These were the only A/C equipped 5301s.
Very interesting nugget of information
never thought you would make this, this is amazing!
Thank you I've been getting tons of fan mail from viewers begging me to review these for years now so I figured it was time
wow lol but good to see you back 😅
Very nice review!!
Glad you enjoyed it stay tuned for more coming soon
It was very nice seeing you back doing reviews. Next bus review, can you do the 2009-10 Nova lfsa?
Very soon I plan on reviewing every bus nycta ran
Let him get to the buses of the 1970s and the TMC RTSs from the private lines first.
Took it back to the fishbowls
I've only seen the antenna covers on TA and OA buses. Other operators must have radio antennas and bus washes. What was different that they didn't need the protective covers. Did they all mount the antennas elsewhere or have different washes?
When is the review for the MCI cruisers coming n
Soon in the midst of working on it
