MCI102A3 Posted November 28, 2006 Author Report Posted November 28, 2006 What tranny does Barrie's Orion I's and V's have?
general682002 Posted November 29, 2006 Report Posted November 29, 2006 What tranny does Barrie's Orion I's and V's have? The I have Allison, the V and the 89 I have Voith.
MCI102A3 Posted December 1, 2006 Author Report Posted December 1, 2006 The I have Allison, the V and the 89 I have Voith. When I was riding one of the Vs on the Bayview it sounded like a Voith D863 but the tranny woudn't go past 2nd. I have a recording of it, but not a good quality one.

I have a recording of it, but not a good quality one. That because majority of Barrie drivers downgear the transmission.

It's a Ford E350.
Matt Posted December 7, 2006 Report Posted December 7, 2006 So are the 06' D40LF's numbered 680, 682, 683, and 684 then?
Orion VIII Posted December 7, 2006 Report Posted December 7, 2006 So are the 06' D40LF's numbered 680, 682, 683, and 684 then? And 685.
Matt Posted December 8, 2006 Report Posted December 8, 2006 I thought they were only supposed to get 4. They only put the bid out for 4 vehicles.
general682002 Posted December 9, 2006 Report Posted December 9, 2006 (edited) I thought they were only supposed to get 4. They only put the bid out for 4 vehicles. I'll double check. It looks like they did bought 5. Edited December 9, 2006 by general682002
MCI102A3 Posted December 9, 2006 Author Report Posted December 9, 2006 I'll double check. It looks like they did bought 5. They bought 4. They are: 682-83-84-85 I've never heard of a 680, but 681 is a paratransit bus (Ford E350) (EDIT: 1/02/07, I just looked through my pics and there is a 680. It's a Ford paratransit. But, I don't have a pic of a 681, but I think it's somewhere.)

2VivaBlue91 Posted April 27, 2007 Report Posted April 27, 2007 I am going to Georgian College in September and want to get a map of the routes and a timetable so I can see where/how I can get around in Barrie. I am going up to Barrie tommorow to tour the campus, do they have these on the buses or is there a place I can order one? Thanks

MCI Classic Posted April 28, 2007 Report Posted April 28, 2007 You can get a hard copy of the system map at the Barrie Transit Terminal. Just go inside the terminal & ask at the counter.

2VivaBlue91 Posted April 29, 2007 Report Posted April 29, 2007 I sent an email to them today. I was up in Barrie and their transit system operates D40LFs and Orion Vs (thats all I saw). All of their buses have 1 line displays front with no rear route sign.
general682002 Posted April 29, 2007 Report Posted April 29, 2007 ask them to mail you one Barrie does not send by mail.
