- One of LIB's old retired workhorses. This bus features the Detroit Diesel 92 series 6V92TA engine with an Allison HTB-748 transmission. Even though the decision was made years ago to convert the entire fleet to CNG, I still believe that when the MTA Bus company took the wheel that they should've kept some of these.

wow i wish OC Trasnpo still had these buses around thanks for sharing
Didn't the 1997-98 CNG Orion V's take over for the 1981 Grumman-Flxible 870s and some of the 1984 Flxible Metros, both of which had 8V71 Detroit Diesel engines?
@ENTERTAINMENT35 these are in canada
@breberz : yeah i know LIB got rid of thiers from being used on the regular routes but i knew they still had them in their yard the last time i knew but maybe now they dont... when i rode LIB in 2005 when these buses were still around there were the ads inside the buses that said they were replacing all the diesel buses with CNG ones so since the MTA runs all the buses i think none of these run anymore anywhere in nyc
actually i think they replaced them all bc there were ads inside the buses in 2005 that said the CNG buses to replace diesel buses project was nearly complete etc. so i think they are all gone now

these buses were retired because of the emissions. suffolk transit is getting the new Orion VII low floor buses later this year too to replace the older ones they have. UGH buses arent made like they used to anymore! the glory days are definitely behind us
I knew that!! lol...No, seriously, thanx 4 the correction cuz I wasn't too sure.
@ breberz thank you for responding you can indeed send me the photo's and thank you again
@qwandiddy they using these in canada now
nah they're all gone now
@ClassicTVMan81 It does has htb 747.
also @ 3:40 it sounds awesome!
@breberz: yes i guess it does but still those buses were in good shape. same goes for the oldes buses suffolk county transit has now that they are getting rid of. i think buses shud be retired because of thier age and condition not emissions unless theres an environment law or something that says buses can only have a certain amount of emissions, but i doubt that
If anyone can get the pictures of the long island bus gillig phantoms please let me know .
you mean it has htb 747 transmission
thought the mta still had these buses in the yard for emergency means when buses replaced trains when trackwork and such was being done etc.? i always used to see a few 600 buses outside train stations for bus service for those who needed to ride the trains
@ENTERTAINMENT35 Well, I guess that makes perfect sense then.
@ENTERTAINMENT35: To the best of my knowledge (cuz I live in Florida now), the MTA Bus Company & MTA New York City Bus sitll have some that run regularly (with the repowered specs), bus LIB got rid of all of theirs.
@breberz yes please send me the photo's thank you
