Then-MTA NYCT TMC RTS-06 8565 from late-May

[RTS CNG Command 301]

For a few months, I went on a quest to find the RTS 8565, and in late-May, I was able to find it and take about 100 pictures of the bus.

 

I also took two vids of the bus in action, one when it parked and the other when it left.

 

 

 

 

 

Have fun viewing!

 

Edit: I'm having trouble embedding my YouTube videos in the thread, so I'm putting in the links until I fix it.

 

ETA II: *laugh* Guess I found out how, after all! ^^;

If you still want 8565, go to the LGA depot.

excuse me for asking, but what's so special about 8565?

Like I said in another thread, 8565 was the first NYCT bus to have a rooftop tailpipe, and it had a pair, 8566. I also had a liking for this bus 'cause it was the only NYCT bus to have double-rear vents. It's more of a personal liking for me.

 

Since spotting this bus in late-May, I've seen it one other time. But since filming the clips, I stopped looking for it and continued doing my usual busfanning routine.

Oh ok. Thanks.
