- Kal-El shares a classic recording that'll have us RTS Fans FINISHED!!!!!
Here's a recording of 1996 Remanufactured GMC T8J204 RTS #7545 (Originally 1982 #1702)
In the Late 90s, NYCTA started a program of remanufacturing 1981 and 1982 GMC RTS-04s as a way to minimize the cost of bus replacements & were numbered as 7000-7049 & 7500-7559. The program saw the remanufacturing of 110 buses, 50 of which was remanufactured by the NYCTA's own Central Maintenance Facilities and the other 60 was remanufactured by Midwest Bus Co.
7000-7049 were remanufactured under NYCTA while 7500-7559 were remanufactured under Midwest.
These RTSs were the BOMB!!!!! if you don't believe it, just LISTEN!!!

Damn, he musta had one expensive ass recorder to get such a clear recording of a bus this old back then.
I remember these when they first arrived in Brooklyn they fast as hell I wonder they took out of service because they good
Because they were retiring. Replaced by the O7s.
I love this sound
I saw this RTS bus once in downtown Manhattan before 9/11, and I haven't seen it since then, but she sounded brand new.
You are the man. I remember these RTSs as a kid. Jesus, do I miss them...
Oh... I miss these RTS buses, I grew up in Tucson, AZ. The city used to have many of these and I remember this sound and it was good flash back memories
Yea only a 2 stroke detroit diesel has that sound and speed
They sound like the ones in Houston (METRO) once had.
The first picture is downtown Brooklyn (old picture, I can tell from the signal lights) and the second one is on at the corner of Flatbush Ave and Glenwood Av!! The bus came back from Kings Plaza. AHHHHHH THE MEMORIES!!! I never took the B6. Always rode the B41! I miss these buses, especially when they hit numerous bumps. LMAO
I used to go to a day care center at East 35 Street and Flatbush Avenue. These buses were amazing in how they looked and sounded. I even rode them a couple of times or so. I wasn't really fond of the 4xxx ones or the buses that Green Bus Lines ran on the Q35.
I miss these buses. I'll also miss the V731 Nova ones once they retire, though I won't miss the ZF Ecomat ones.
thanks for the flashback
sounds clean and powerful!
So 7546 Was Refix But It Was An 80s GMC model I didn't know that
Would've been nice to see RTS's make it into 2020!
Unfortunately they made their last trips last year
@@kalelc1996 I know, I saw a tribute video
Dam emissions laws killed the 2 stroke Detroits years ago
Sad
@@fil1329 VERY SAD
NEW FLYER XD40
I liked these over the 4xxx ones. I still do.
They need this in Beam NG. This sound is perfect.
Such dope buses
The remanufactured Rtses sounded pretty good.
And looked good too
Yep. Probably the best RTS ever made.
This was the coolest and boldest thing MTA ever did
I agree with you.
+RSMG106 Music Channel Yea and we're the only TA to do something like that so when non NYC transit fans ask 1996 GMC RTSs? I show them
It almost sound like the ones in Tampa, Florida(Hartline) and the ones in St. Bernard Parish , Louisiana. (SBURT)
MCTS had 5 RTS buses with the 6v92 with the 731 Allison Transmission they where numbers 3220-3224
that is tight OMG!!!!!!!
GREAT!
I totally forgot that the rebuilds playing some serious power
Ahh I still remember it
Kingsbridge, Queens Village, Quill, Manhattanville, Yukon, Castleton and 126st had them too
Flatbush definitely had them. I rode these buses when I was in elementary school.
2004OrionVIICNG east ny units eventually ended up at flatbush, then ulmer park.. Flatbush had bus #7000, the first nycta rebuilt unit and 7500 at one point
Kal-El Same With ENY And Flatbush As Well As Ulmer Park
I Wish DDOT Detroit Department Of Transportation Had This Power Engine.

These RTSs were in a league of their own
Damn she sounds fast
