These buses go hard similar to the 1998-2000 C40LF's, I do miss the Detroit Series 50 Engines New Flyer used but now we are at an Era of electric buses.
R.I.P D60's....😢😤 1996-2019 It was truly a pleasure.The Game will never be same with out y'all in MABSTOA. These units should've lasted longer than they did but time is an essence..😪 Other than that Thank You very much Kal-El 💯
RIP D60HF's (1996-2019), They are gone, but will not be forgotten
These buses are my childhood I used to hate them but I started to get used to them and they are awesome buses great to see the memories of riding these beauty’s
Yay, a D60HF review! It's sad to see them retire. :( Thanks for making this video!
BenTheMiner - Transit & Games no I didn’t see them retire yet
What’s sad is that 5739 which was a select bus service retired in like 2013
When I was younger, I use to take these on the m101 when I use to live in NY, but left NY in 2005. I came back in 2010 and 2011 and they were still there. Now I live in Georgia and haven't been back since 2011. I'm gonna miss these
Thank goodness for this review!
These are personally my most favorite D60HFs. My top favorite thing about them(besides the engine/trans combinations) were the not just the rear paint schemes , but the black shiny rubber(black window side trimmings) shown on the sides of these artics just like @0:34 of #5693. These made them the most sexiest D60HFs. I remember in late summer 2017 , whilst it was my first year working out of Micheal J.Quill with my relative , that #5720 was my very first D60HF I've been in with one of my friendly operators . When I got on it while it was NIS , he made this bus sound excellent with his speeding effort . I also got the chance to accelerate it too(luckily). You know what , I'm serverely going to miss these buses. According to my 60ft list, these D60s still has more value than the LFSAs, but not enough to the XD60s. Since early 2018, I could never keep my eyes off of our recent LFSAs(2017-2018) under Michael J. Quills roof. Thank you very much Kal-EL
I beg for them to preserve one of these!
Note: The 2019 LFSAs are being brought in for the incoming L train shutdown.
I like these too especially the ones that whistle
@@kalelc1996 Speaking of that, my other thing I like(what you hated) was the fanbelt screeching.
@@kalelc1996 I was never irritated with those.
The D60HF's with Black Window trimmings are the D60HF Galaxy's as people call them.
Good review as always and it was cool to be featured. Also I just finished my set of reviews as well and as soon as I fix the bugs in there they'll be up in a few days.
I'm Gonna miss them, i didn't even know They retired, but it was fun riding them while they lasted :(
Update: more buses were also renumbered due to the 2019 LFSA Buses numbered 5531-5602 coming in as well.
@MTA Bus Faner! They are the first one to have a "Hi Visibility Operator" window.
This was well worth the wait! Excellent review bro, glad I could be of awesome assistance! 😎👍
Oh that's you? Cool!
When I came back to ny, I took the M101 to my Grandma's house and when I was on 125th, the AC came on and it felt like I was in a damn freezer LOL. Gonna miss these💯
Man gonna miss these guys I'm fanning the most I can on these now while they're still here and amazing review
I fell in love with 5739
Been waiting good job !
Love your videos your videos are awesome it's wonderful to know there's people out there just like me.🤗🤗🤗🤗
wow nice review I want to say That I remember I Used to See the D60HFs in SBS Wrapped on the Bx12 SBS, I Ride them Alot when I go outside even to School or other Places. I see them alot. I Still will Get my photos,videos and Rides of them Before they all Retired by mid 2019. Then it will be The End of the Era of the New Flyer D60HFs
Thank you kal el
o boy im have been waiting for this!
Also y’all can ride the D60HFs in Minneapolis few of them are still active.
3100-3149 are the 2003 models
3200-3214 are the 2006 last final models
The MTA Was supposed to order 2004-2005 New Flyer D60HFs 5770-5834 but cancelled due to model being discontinued and the order was transferred to NovaBus under the same numbers and up the order went up to 5986
Yep I remember being very disappointed about that.
Omg thank you for using my lfsa video from the Grind railers account 🙏
The engine sound is awesome. It's similar to the 550/B500R transmission used in previous New Flyer models, such as the D60HFs and D60LFs in Washington state.
Holy moly. Kal El I was exploring on Google maps street view on the New England Thurway next to the Eastchester depot and I turn and I saw d60hf 5534 parked there and get this the version of the street view is dated Feb 2022
Museum bus
@@kalelc1996 I guess
Cool Review 👍I’ll Join In On The 2006-07 Orion VII Hybrid Review
Looking forward to it
The last time I was inside a D60HF was at gun hill depot on 5759. For some reason, I fell in love with a bus 5739. I know 5739 was from gun hill for the Bx12. They gave it a Select Bus Service Wrap. Then they took the wrap off and gave it to West Farms Depot for the Bx15. I feel like I fell in love with 5739 because I maybe rode it before.
Nice!
6:05 Bx9he was talking about the hill i lived on w kingsbridge rd. It was steep as hell. Buses got stuck in the snow in the winter
A few years ago I made a bus music video featuring some Classical antique buses featuring my 870 Grumman flxible GMC fishbowl flxible fishbowl and many more awesome classics. And the music is by Lonnie Liston Smith. The second bus music video I did the music is by Chick Corea. Imma try to upload them on RUclips as soon as I can.
Did you know MTA was going to order one more batch of D60HFs (2004-2005 D60HF). The number was going to arrange from 5770-5834. New Flyer discontinued the high floor bus models for low floor bus models. honestly, I was disappointed when I read it on the wikipedia, They would probably run them in Queens like JFK, Baisley Park, and/or Casey Stengel Depot.
Those buses were planned to be in Manhattan depots and Casey Stengel. But like you said the model was discontinued and as a result the MTA became upset with New Flyer. No new articulated buses were put into service until 2009-10 and no buses from New Flyer were ordered until 2011.
Yes I remember that
New York Bus Guy!
Maybe they couldn’t fufill the order. They didn’t want what happened to Millenium Transit Services and Nj Transit to happen to them.
Although Millenium was later.
like bus
It sounds similar to the Orion V
Awesome. When are you gonna review the 5900 series Orion Vs from Green Lines?
I miss riding those busses in the Bronx and Manhattan
2:13 my year
I ride the new flyer d60hf a lot of times
these busses will always be better than the xd60s and lsfas
High floor rules over Low floors. Buses are meant to be heavy. Sure, LFs aren't without their charm, but as I said before...
Finally
ive rode both of the new ones
👏👏👌👌
If it's okay if I can use one of your video clips when I do bus reviews I will give you credit.
Go ahead
I wish MTA also had the c60lf’s as well.
there is such thing as a c60lf?
@@thatcanadianbusfoamer8989 Yes. There were D60LF's, just like there were D60HF's
@@Vxllain ?!
HOW IN THE HECK
@@Vxllain You are correct. MTA did test one though.

2003 5659 was the very last unit.
Pretty sure they use a DD50EGR
Yes they do
nice d60hf these are the best 5757 got preseverd and looked new wow add s b s plzzzz and what depot got s bs d6ohf ik gun hill got them
5534 got preserved
Im gonna miss these and the RTS along with SA TX NABI
Didn't New York also have M.A.N articulates way back in the 80's ?
Bee Line did but the one MTA tested ended up going to Bee Line as well
So when did Queens get the D60HF
Around 2013 ish
You how do you get your research cause I research where these buses go and everything about them but I honestly get nothing
I get my research from fellow transit experts and operators as well as MTA officials
Kal-El Thanks BTW Love The Reviews
+Kal-El you can also get your research from this website : Metropolitan Transportation Authority CPTDB Wiki
Come and join me in my Facebook group Freddie James bus world classic and new buses
After these retired, I stopped being a bus fan.
