The classic MTA buses it’s great to be a New Yorker in the mid 60’s! I love it!
Man I’m living this! Can’t wait til u do the New Look Flixble review
Man, I miss those!!!
Excellent video of the Fishbowl 🚌.
I remember them so well growing up in New York city. My favorite color is the original dark green.
Keep up the good work 👏 🙌 👍 👌 💪 😉
Thanks.
Goodnight sir and Thank-you once again for giving us another one of your great video 📹. But this time it's on the 165 Fishbowl Bus of MTA. They were part of great Bus fleet that last from the the mid 1960's 1965 to about the early. I only have a few memories of riding on them and see them in Action. So these where of the first Buses in the MTA to have the Batwings .. I am just glad that the MTA had one of saved one of then as part of there throwback fleet of Buses sir. Once again awesome video sir.

Great video on the new looks buses my favorite bus of all time
Im in the DMV and operators always complimented how good they are in the snow...and Fishbowl's are retired because they are not handicapped equipped
Nice review bro 👍
Glad you liked it
GREAT THE BATWINGS FEATURE
Following their retirement, their fleet numbers got re-used for the following bus orders:

5250-5525 - 1999-2002 New Flyer D60HF
6401-6900 - 2003-2007 Old Gen Orion VII
While not mentioned in this review, seven units were transferred to MSBA (later Long Island Bus, currently NICE) in the late-70's.

6688-6689. Which were renumbered to 500-506.
5250-5251 were 1998, 5252-5271 were 1999s and 5272-5509 were 2000 models

Cool video bro I rode in those fishbowls when I was in highschool

Here's my request, to the MTA Bus 1997-1999 Orion 05.501 CNG review
😉
@@kalelc1996 That's going to be an exhausting one. Those buses literally went EVERYWHERE (except Staten Island).
Please do the 1999 Orion V CNG
