LANTA (Lehigh, PA) Orion I's

Does anyone here remember LANTA's (Lehigh and Northampton Transportation Authority) 1987 and '89 Orion I's? The 30-foot models were numbered 8721-8730 and 8931-8935 and the 35-foot models were numbered 8936-8950.

According to the above link, they came with Detroit Diesel 6V71N engines and Voith D851 transmissions, but I'd like to think they all instead had Detroit Diesel 6V92TA engines and Voith D863 transmissions (especially the 1989 models), same as those Orion I's in Canada, such as in Pickering, ON (922-923, 924-925 and 926); Markham, ON (2033-2036); Oshawa, ON (121-123); and Brampton, ON (8894-8899, 8901-8909 and 9014-9028).
