M. David Posted December 13, 2009 Report Share Posted December 13, 2009 Nuts, they retired 6018, the bus with the experimental Cummins engine . That bus was pretty cool, and actually sounded pretty good with its un-Classic-like engine. Oh well, at least we got to charter it a while back. Any chance we'll be able to do a 61XX charter at some point? Those buses are going pretty fast as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ProchaineStation Posted December 13, 2009 Report Share Posted December 13, 2009 I have soo many memories in the 59 60 61 buses! At Mother Teresa High School and Laval Junior High school.(they share the bus routes) There is at-least 20 Classics that park and wait until students finish school. Then all the classics start there engine! Rev the hell out of them. And we leave. This would be awesome to get a video shot of all of them leaving, some of them don't even do public routes anymore and are usually buses soon to retire. One Time we got OC Transit buses in 2007, with the cushioned seats and everything.(are they orions?) all logos were still on! Thats when the STL was running out of buses, but that was fixed when they bought all kinds of buses the next year. We were adding more frequency and started new routes left and right when the metro opened. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ProchaineStation Posted December 13, 2009 Report Share Posted December 13, 2009 They were classics, 1993 Nova Classics. No, I know a classic when I see one. It had cushioned benches along the bus and it did not look like a classic at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My long term charter planning includes a 6200 series, but not until 2011 at the earliest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
