- Here's a compilation of videos taken during the last day of service for these historic buses. The final bus in revenue service, 2281, entered Mt Dennis garage at 2:45xm after running on the Yonge Subway Replacement Shuttle.
Powertrain: Detroit Diesel 6V71N/Allison V730.
GOOD BYE FISHIE AND THANK YOU FOR GOOD MEMORIES
I remember this day like it was yesterday. I really miss seeing these buses driving around.
A moment in history
i drove most of these buses when they were at wilson division & i know i drove both 2444 & 2290 numerous times each; the gm buses weren't quick off the line, didn't have air-conditioning & were not disability-accessible, but were fun to drive, especially in snow; i really miss them, especially their sound...
And reliable.
Didn't the Fishbowl buses with the big box on the rear window have air conditioning?

Probably since it’s in the North and does not get too hot I think.
@@42luke93 oh, it gets plenty hot here in the sumertime, with high humidity...
the ttc was just too cheap to purchase air-conditioned buses...
dave oh
Oh wow, like comeon.
THANKS FISHES
Those buses were the best. I rarely see them breaking down. I'll certainly miss them.
ONCE WAS NOW RETIRERING THANK YOU TTC FISHBOWEL❤❤❤❤❤❤
CLASSIC GM FISHBOWL❤❤❤❤
I Was Born In The Way Late 50's So I Was Raised Up Going On Those GM Fishbowl Buses And They Had Style All Their Own Too Bad I Don't See Them Anymore,Great Video!
Nice job on the video. I am a retired TTC employee so I really like these videos. THANK YOU KINDLY.
Bus #2290 was sent to Ireland where they collect old buses from transit companies.
So was 2291.
Were Toronto Transit Commission's GM T6H-5307N New Looks a mainstay of their fleet through the 1990s and in to the ENTIRE 2000s?
Yup almost a 1000 of them in service at one point in that time frame
@manudogom1764 Some even were in service by December 31, 2009 which marked the end of the 2000s decade.
Beautiful buses love the sound!Fishbowl👍👍
Tienen sonido de autobuses de central camionera
I sure miss those 6-71 engine sounds
It amazes me how a 30 year old Detroit Diesel can produce no smoke at all.
@@antoniojmonetti Detroit Diesels have a reputation of being smokey engines. These ones are exceptional.
I really miss them
WHY DO THEY CALL THEM NEW LOOK . IS THAT THEY RRBUILD THEM FRPM THE GROUND UP
TOO BAD THEY WRNT TO IRERLAND HOPE THERE GETTING GOOD USE OF A CLASDIC ICON VEHICLE

for fans of TTC fishbowl buses rapido trains is doing a 1/87 scale. bus numbers will be 7737,7910,8049,8058 and 8155
So 52 Route was majority of 1991 Orion Vs until their retirement in 2009, then GM Fishies took over.
I thought those came with the 6V92TA motor.
Scrapped... Only two remain. (For charter and special events)
Sad, sad, sad!!! Why, why, why???
All good things must come to an end.
At least they preserved 2252
did all of the buses had to go to the dump?
Ni
Why exactly were they called “New Look?”
Because they came after the Old Look. I’m not kidding, 1959 I think they came out, they were the New Look of transit buses at the time.
If you've watched Jackie Gleason from the Honeymooners, the bus he drove in the picture were the "Old Looks".
Is got to be the fishbowl
