THIS WAS FILMED JUNE 2009 PARTS OF DOWNTOWN MEXICO TIJUANA THERES FLXIBLES GRUMMAN & METRO SOME EX LACMTA GMC RTS 2 HIGHFLYER DINA BUS & ALOT OF GILLIG PHANTOMS WITH GOOD OLD DD6V92
Wow i need to go visit Tijuana they got all kinds of good old buses down there look at that Grumman #1-225 with the 8V71N engine looks like one of the 1979 MST Grummans and still kicking and all those Gilligs and RTS buses oh yeah i need to make a trip down there great job great video good to see all those buses still working and not junk.
OH yes! Many transit agencies (including AC Transit here in Oakland) sell their retired buses to Mexico dirt cheap. They've been doing that for over 40 years.
there are a lot of former ac transit buses from oakland ca in tijuana i once rode one that still said hayward bart station i was hella laughing cuz nobody on that bus except me and my sister knew what that was .....
too bad their off the road now .. all the new buses suck, have less space and they are slow as hell .. back then when i still rode on those with my family (around the 90's) they were awesome,so cool looking,fast and very spacious
I remember those old buses, they have very comfortable seats. I remember when I was a kid, in the 90s there was even a blue and white Crown Supercoach. I liked to travel in it and listen to the sound of the Detroit engine
I wonder if Mexico wants to rid itself of all of these vintage buses with their Detroit Diesel engines, just as they had with the classic-design VW Beetles with their boxer engines?
@0:47~1:23 the gmc rts2 looks like a "recycled" NYCTA,MTA RTS2 look at the tailights :P most of those had round tailights but MTA models had the rectangle headlight size lights !
This buses actually its out ofrece service all no moré gillings no flexibles gmc only got mexican new buses and school buses in service i don liked nuw buses

Que lindo sonaban las vitrinas rummmmmmm
This video is too awesome!!! Most of these buses were 6V92TA powered
I like the way that Flx sounded at 0:43.....pure awesomeness!
MetroLinerXLZ I did too I love the way it sound bad ass
Dude, u gotta get an on-board recording of those 6V92 Gilligs...those are my absolute favorite buses!
The Gillig Phantom buses came from San Diego transit and others came from National City transit :)
That Flixble at 4:03 sound like it was 8V71 powered. Nothings more powerful than the 8V71 buses. Awesome!!!

It is said that the influx of Flxibles and Gillig Phantoms no longer meet emissions standards in Tijuana.
So none of these exist anymore? :(
TheCRTman Correct. You should have been there back then.
ClassicTVMan1981X That sucks!! Those were 1983 Phantoms!
TheCRTman Yeah.
Love this video great job
Any one know where i can find an all time bus roster for tijuana buses I'm quite curious now after seeing this video.
Schedules and rosters are sort of a new thing for Tijuana transit. You can check out the SITT website at www.sitt.tijuana.gob.mx/
164 looks like a school bus but with 2 doors
