Loud-Invero Posted December 8, 2017 Report Share Posted December 8, 2017 Does anyone have any audio / video recordings of this bus? I found one somewhere on the CPTDB in a thread which someone replied "OC Transpo 8651 on route 95, recorded February 2002." But I can't find it any where now .

Well here's a recording of one with the Detroit Diesel 6L71TA and ZF 5HP590 combo. http://www.transithub.net/sounds/ttc6383.mp3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are some DDC and Cummins Ikarus recordings on the old Yahoo OC Bus Fan Club page. You need to be a member but here is the link: https://groups.yahoo.com/neo/groups/octransposbusfanclub/files/OC TRANSPO BUS SOUNDS/Orion Ikarus Z86/ There are few poor quality TTC/OC Ikarus distance shot videos on youtube if you feel like searching them out but I wouldn't bother. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sseguin Posted August 9, 2018 Report Share Posted August 9, 2018 The audio on the old Yahoogroups OC Transpo bus fan club was recorded by me back in 2001-2002. Good old times. Wish I had had a better recorder but they still sound decent today. I remember there was also a Polls group, which I can't find anymore. Does anyone have the link? I'd love to see if I had uploaded more audio there... Thank you. On a side note, we all associate the motor starting sound of the Montreal Metro as being part of it's identity and a classic sound, to me the Orion Ikarus (at least the Detroit Diesel ones) were that for OC Transpo back in the day. No buses ever had a sound like that, a true classic. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MCIBUS Posted August 10, 2018 Report Share Posted August 10, 2018 Here are the two links to the Yahoo OC groups: Fan Club: https://groups.yahoo.com/neo/groups/octransposbusfanclub/info Polls Group: https://ca.groups.yahoo.com/neo/groups/octransposbusfanclubpolls/info To join yI still think you need approval by JCL as he's the groups owners. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OC Transpo/STO Fan Posted August 10, 2018 Report Share Posted August 10, 2018 Off topic, but I would be interested in seeing the Yahoo group. Unfortunately, I can't seem to get access even after applying. Yes, I know the group is dead, but there's information that's interesting to see. (My intent is not to post, but to view old information from 2001-2005.) Hello @JCL, may you please try to look over my application and get me subscribed to the group when you have the time? I have been waiting since July. It would be greatly appreciated. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
