Man, I feel like a kid again...things seem so much faster back then.
Now today: literally all these buses retired (Orion Vs still in service but are about to be retired)
I remember riding those buses when I was a kid many years ago!
I still remember all the the bus numbers that I use to ride on the X2 lol. The line was right behind my house in far NE DC.The use to run from Lafayette Square to Seat Pleasant then the X2 was extended further out to Capital Hts. Them 80s where the days! I love this song too whats the name of it?🎉 Great video
I'm from Philly but I wish it was 2001 again.
@bus3204 Excellent Video! I love those Flxible Coaches. Thanks for catching so many of them on video. The music is good too. I'd like to get a 40-foot Flxible Metro and covert it to an RV. The Flxible Coaches are my absolute favorite.
Can't believe rideon changed their colors also!
@PMann9321 I remember I used to see those on the A^ all the time. All those old buses used to struggle up Wheeler Rd. and other hills...Lol
nice shots
LOL! If you're referring to the bus at 0:40, that's a 1983 MAN Articulated. The X2 was infamous for them.
@Bus3204 yeah the H street line. They originally came from Germany and now that i live here, MAN, SETRA, NEOPLAN, and Mercedes Benz makes some great buses here. But I really miss the buses back in DC though
jleftwing9771 you ain't missing shit, D.C. Is being gentrified 😩
and i never new they had those old articulated orions
That one artic looks nice!!
Go on girl.
HAHA Nice video about time theres a video of the old Flxbles!!!!11
@PMann9321 I remember I used to see those buses on the A6 years ago. They used to struggle up the hills, especially Wheeler Rd....
This video would be so much better without that background music, the sounds of tbuses is what I'm here for.
Wow that’s so cool
We loved our flxibles, did we?
these buses are retired now except the Orion V that still remains in service. It's being retired soon.
The Orion Vs are pretty much gone now, unfortunately. :(
Now gone what a classic bus but Wmata is keeping them for backups or used during the rush hour.
Brayden Bachlott: Upadte: The Orion’s are back into service since their rebuilding divisions and they need spare buses. So expect to see the Orion’s staying longer
@@_thebusphotograher_cali No, they are too old to say longer.
@@rockypereztheautismawarene242 As of August 2021, all remaining 2000 Orion Vs are now retired and scrapped.
Excellent video. What's the name of the song/artist?
Bus3204 Have you ridden on any Washington buses at that time? I ask since you seem to be so obsessed with them.
I’m probably in the house or school having a conversation about Dragonball z I’m sure or Pokémon lol

In fact, the replacements for the MAN artics are all retired now while the newest Orion Vs in this video are still active.
