Sound clip a 1995 Flxible Metro E currently in service for the Maryland Transit Administration. This series is equipped with a Detroit Diesel Series 50 Engine and Allison Transmission
Man this beast hear is the exactly why old diesel buses will always sound more hardcore than newer diesel buses and natural gas buses. BTW that rattling sounds awesome on this beast
I miss the Flxibles. I myself even wish the NABI 416s had Series 50 instead of M11 as the Series 50 sounds alot better. But at least they didnt use the ISC like NJ Transit did. And even CAT of Harrisburgs 94 RTSs sounded just like the MTAs 95 Flxibles.
