GREAT recording! You have just made me quite happy, as this recording brings back fond memories of riding buses with the same powertrain (Ride On's 1980/1981 TMC Citycruisers) when I was quite little. Thanks so much! :)
It's too bad not many of these are left lying around here: did any of the 1978 Orion I 30-foot buses originally to Mississauga Transit (#2082-2087) have the Cummins B5.9G engines when they were rehabbed in 1992?
There is a video of a 1969 Seagrave K 100' Tiller "Ride" that was posted by ClassicTVMan81 that used my recording of a 1973 GM TDH3302N with a picture of the fire engine as well, powered by the 6V53N engine as well.
I wonder how these 6V-53-powered Orions would perform against the later ones using the 6V-92TA Detroit Diesel?

I've reposted those two videos now, and I gave you credit for the audio recordings on both, as usual.
