It's amazing how much changes there have been within the last 17 years. The Neoplans and Icaruses are long gone, as are the Flexibles, the 1980's era articulated buses and 1960's era GM bus. The PATCO trains are virtually being rebuilt, the orange masks on the Broad Street trains are being reduced to small single stripes and the trolleys all have LED signage and automated announcements. The NBC-like melody and female voice has been replaced by a three not touch tone and man's voice. Most, if not all of the train stations have been or are in the process of being renovated. What a great look into a not so long ago past.
Downtown is pronounced, "Sennur Siddy".
Best SEPTA TH-cam video ever.
Me and my cousin ran into beanie sigel in downtown Philadelphia it was either 99 or 2000
Back when the 16 was still the C bus.
When NJ Transit had REAL buses.......nowadays is Nabi 416.15s, Neoplan AN59 artics, and MCI D4000s
Man.....i remember this like it was yesterday.....the old red white and blue, the roll signs on the kawasaki100se......the silverliner iv is still going strong
The Volvo articulated buses were my favorite!!! I used to love to ride those and I grew up across the street from the depot where they were kept.
Oh snap! I didn't even know that SEPTA also had those Volvo B10's back in the day. I always thought NJT was the only one in America with those buses.
Y'all guys said their goes that news van again Lol!
I hung out in Philly a few times in the Summer of 1999. So many memories.
This is a great video. Buses like these are now either very rare or extinct.
By far one of the best period piece compilation of
This video gives me flashbacks! I was a mechanic (3rd class) for S.E.P.T.A. for 14 years and recognize a few of those Neoplan buses that I may have worked on at some point! I saw an older GMC bus also..(60's)...some of those were around when I first started with the company!! What was even crazier for me was seeing that Krapf's coach near the end years after leaving S.E.P.T.A. I would end up there! Those Neoplans were a good bus..the NABI's or Ikcurus...(spelling)....were junk.....good video!!
I grew up on this era
Good ol' days weren't as crazy as it is today.

Bring Back So Many Memerios
awww man, power 99 ad on the front of that bus....soooo 90's lol. I have always wondered if these buses had the a Detroit Diesel Powerplant in them because it sure sounds like it.
8727. Neoplan CD bus 8727. That was an ex Germantown depot bus. I probably grew up riding that bus.
