Green Lines 96 Posted July 9, 2011 Share #35 Posted July 9, 2011 Are there any Orion VI's still in service? I've never seen one in service before. Are they retired now that there are NG's? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was there anything wrong with those Orion VI's? There are a number of them in service around the country, but not here. only bought ten of them, four of which were NJT rejects. This model was the predecessor of the Orion VII OG and had quite a number of issues including things like steering linkage pins that were prone to popping, fire safety issues, etc. The ten we owned were retired in 2005; of them I think only 6350 is still on property (now a museum bus).
