Using AutoCheck to find VINs by entering a license plate
Detroit Diesel 6V92TA replied to Cappy's topic in GENERAL INFO
It is not possible with NMVTIS. With Autocheck.com's VIN reports, I was able to get the city and state, which definitely makes it easier to pinpoint certain operators, organizations and owners (especially Transit Sales International). It is not legal for NMVTIS, Autocheck, Carfax etc. to give out names of owners/companies. You can try to ask the DMV, but I'm not sure how well that will go. In my case, I had prior knowledge from past research and I combine that research with new found info. I can also pinpoint where certain things went depending on the scrap yard as well. So far the only website I've seen that actually has names is specially for Ohio registered vehicles. This was the most recent link I've used, but is seems to have been taken down: https://bmvonline.dps.ohio.gov/Search/VinSearch This was the previous link, but even that one doesn't go to the new link anymore either: https://services.dps.ohio.gov/BMVOnlineServices/Search/Title I wrote down some company names on pages such as these: https://cptdb.ca/wiki/index.php/Western_Reserve_Transit_Authority_8801-8837 & https://cptdb.ca/wiki/index.php/Allen_County_Regional_Transit_Authority_26-30 EDIT: This is the new link that seems to work now: https://bmvonline.dps.ohio.gov/bmvonline/search/title -
Not necessary. The Ikarus 286 was branded as the Orion III in Canada, not Orion-Ikarus.

I had the same concern... I think the pages should be split. I just don't know how we'd go on with naming them. If we don't split them, I guess it wouldn't be a huge deal (besides blue bird as you mentioned). @Articulated

I don't have time for this project due to work and a stack of my own projects, but here is a roster Andrew Novak sent me last year. The wiki page could definitely use an update. I also helped him acquire some of the VINs for the buses and I'm about to attempt to find 1 more VIN shortly (https://www.facebook.com/groups/THEBUSLOUNGE/posts/10157181117929229/). (My name is in the credits on the PDF lol). Orange Belt Stages is now closed, I think as of 2020. https://cptdb.ca/wiki/index.php/Orange_Belt_Stages OBS-Roster-11-17-2020.pdf

Using AutoCheck to find VINs by entering a license plate
Detroit Diesel 6V92TA replied to Cappy's topic in GENERAL INFO
2 extremely useful links for bus registration & disposition info: - https://www.bumper.com/ -> Official NMVTIS data. License plate option, but can't get a VIN from plates. Standard VINs only (no serials or weird check digits/typos). Affordable subscription fee. - Removed the autocheck info link. PM me for the details. It also is currently down. -
Using AutoCheck to find VINs by entering a license plate
Detroit Diesel 6V92TA replied to Cappy's topic in GENERAL INFO
Here's nearly a perfect replacement for how Vehiclehistory.com was from Feb. to June 2019 with the free NMVTIS reports. This site charges for them, but it's a flat subscription rate per month or per 3 months with unlimited reports! It's extremely affordable and fair. I tried it myself and I love it. Unfortunately you cannot get a VIN from a plate here (the only downfall). Give it a try and find more info on all of these bus VINs. Find out whether stuff went out of state or went to scrap. https://www.bumper.com/ -
Yes there's vids on it lol. Cool info, do you know when they retired them from school tripper service and when 105 was sold off? I took these pics in December 2019. I wanna redo the exhaust on it at some point.

Interesting. So far this has been a good website. The USDOT reports heavily remind me of another website I once used a lot, Quicktransportsolutions. Good info, plates & VINs too. -

I proved it in 2014 lol: -
Renamed. Sorry for the delay. I thought this was already taken care of. Thanks

I convinced my friend to save one of the Ex-Foothill units in 2019. Bus runs great, but still needs some more work.
