metsfan Posted February 22, 2009 Share #7 Posted February 22, 2009 They don't have enough funding right now to get them, but if they get approval with the new stimulus they may be able to get some. - A Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Novabus 5000 Posted February 22, 2009 Share #9 Posted February 22, 2009 Under NYCT what bus is that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bustitution Posted February 22, 2009 Share #10 Posted February 22, 2009 The numbers 36 are on the front of the bus in the blue stripe. Yes, the bus was returned and No, SEPTA has no plans for Orions. SEPTA is attached to New Flyer right now. The O7 was tested at Southern Depot where are original 32 hybrids are kept. SEPTA got Cummins ISL's instead of ISB's in all of the hybrids including the ones delivered this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Orion Posted February 22, 2009 Share #13 Posted February 22, 2009 The front has been replaced with a newer front like on the rest of the VIIs we got sadly. Same for 7560. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

metsfan Posted February 22, 2009 Share #15 Posted February 22, 2009 you know should strat ordering RTS from Millennium Transit Services. also should strat ordering Orion 7 NG. I don't even think they have any RTS. No need to start getting them now. I believe most of busses are neoplan & new flyer and they are 100% acceptable. - A Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
