TTC 1996 Orion V (05.501) ex-CNG

Toronto Transit Commission (TTC) 1996 Orion V (05.501) ex-CNG #9430 in service on route 122 Graydon Hall on November 17th, 2015, seen here making a left turn at the intersection of Fenside Drive and Lynedock Crescent.
At the time of this video, fewer than 10 Orion V buses remained in the TTC fleet due to retirements; they were being replaced by an ongoing order of 2015 Nova Bus LFSes. Together with their diesel-powered counterparts, the #7000 series Orion V (the last of which retired February 2015), they were the TTC's very first accessible buses introduced back in 1996 and the first to feature a wheelchair lift. 5 Orion V buses made it into their last week of service at the beginning of December with #9430 being among the final few. Its last day of service was on Thursday December 3rd, the Orion V's second last day of service, on routes 78 St. Andrews and 501 Queen.
