NYCTA Exclusive! : On-Board NovaBus LFS Articulated 1200 On The Bx12 +Select Bus Service+ Part Two

[O530Fn942012]

Sorry. Sounds like the portuguese Mercedes-Benz O405N2 with the beautiful screaming!!

[teta809]

i hope one day they make buses way less shaky. i always feel like ima fall and break a leg!

[O530Fn942012]

Sound Like a Portuguese Volvo B10M Articulated of the year 1995.

[dejohn913]

Sounds Almost Like A New Jersey Transit New NABI's

[TheAwarren16]

wow thats a great bus

[jack253]

Wasn't the Mercedes Benz Citaro G NYCTAs perfered chassis.

BTW this bus does sound abit similar towards a Citaro

[WoodyRamesses]

Sure wish i can ride that bus.

[PATJonesy]

is the A/C on because I can barely hear it?

[Caitsith810]

@PATJonesy - I think the bus only had its fans on, the A/C would've made it louder. but then again, this bus has a roof HVAC now.

[cactuarizamoron]

Nice vid and I agree the upholestry sucks! Vancouver just got 2009 nova hevs and 3rd gens and we got vynal on our seats and they're comfy! Also it's easy to cleen!

[mtattrain]

You finally got a trip in that bus eh? Nice view of the interior!

[Caitsith810]

Glad you like them!

[mmedefarge]

I wish that they'd lose the fabric cover on those seats. They get so funky; many times you just don't want to sit down. They must be very hard to clean because they so often have sticky gunk or dirt on them. Don't care for the back-to-back seating arrangement in the rear of the bus either. There's hardly anywhere to walk or stand & it's hard to get in/or out of the window seats.

[LightningFever86]

I agree with you 100%

[ImOfNope]

I love articulate buses. chicago has them and the PA recordings are annoying as hell. 'They talk too much'.

During the whole ride on this one, I noticed I heard the PA announce to 'please give up your seat to the elderly' just once.

If you've never ridden a bus, try it. Especially the newer models.

[calaminelotionsux]

Sounded like a Citaro G or a O405G with a ZF

[Caitsith810]

We did have the Citaro G testing in the states before, its a pretty nice bus I must say!

[calaminelotionsux]

@Caitsith810 A very strong bus too.

[iryan74656]

Is this Flight Simulator X bus line lol.

[claudioino]

Where is it?

[Caitsith810]

Telling me to get a life? This coming from a dude who has a WORLD OF WARCRAFT video on their profile and is spending their time flaming other people's videos.....YOU need a life.

[Seryosin]

@Caitsith810 haha well said. :D Cool vid. Nice to see how's life in NY. :P

[y0u73b3r9]

LOL pwnt

[dattebayo98]

uhh ok? what so special about these? They Lokk like the ones we have here in Chicago!

[Caitsith810]

Well, this is one of the newest artic orders for the MTA, and something thats not from Orion or New Flyer. They might look the same on the inside but on the outside is a different story.

[gamesfreak699]

@dattebayo98 Does it say that this is in chicago, because this is in NYC and this is not chicago. Very few busses were delivered to NYC of this type from this company. It even says "NYCTA Exclusive" and not "Transit Exclusive"

[juliachan1987]

I heard that ZF transmissions have a lot of failures? Any thoughts

[MTLtransitvideos]

Great! :)

[seClip9]

Awesome, this sounds almost like New Jersey Transit's Cummins powered NABI 416 though the transmission sounds little bit different than the on used on this NOVA artic.

[WMATAvids]

oooo i like!

[TNT314159]

Sweet!
