NYC has them governed? Never knew. HEere in puerto rico, the Novas aren't, neither were the old 1988-95 Flxible buses 870 models, nor the orion V,VI,VII's. But i prefer the old Flxibles and RTS over Orion any time. NIce video though
Nah man.........9413 was a 40 since it was brand new. The governor never was taken off unless SI took it off and now UP started governing their buses so now its back at 40
9413 ""was"" a 40 when it was brand new. When any local bus goes to Staten Island, it's governor is upped to 55mph. It was 55mph for when the Novas were on SI and is 55mph for the Orion Vs and Orion VIIs on SI. If they leave any bus on SI at 40mph, then every bus would be late and the scheduling would be way off.
All the Staten Island buses have a mylar covering on the windows that can be taken off when vandalized, replaced with a new covering and the windows are like new again.
Nice. Although I hate Staten Island buses so much. BTW, that is a NovaBus. Even though it has the TMC emblem next to the stairwell, it is infact a NovaBus, they were sold the rights to the RTS by TMC in 1994. They figured changing the TMC symbol was not a priority to them, so that's why on RTSs from 1994- around 1998 (I dont remember if 1999s say NovaBus on them), it says TMC. Any RTS-06 from 8750 and up (including 4900s and 5000s) are NovaBus, and under are TMC.
The only thing I hate about the RTS is the fact that the very back doesn't have good windows that you can see through, if there even is those triangle windows there.
Lol I mean a window that you can record through while being at the very back of the RTS. Also I think this is a NovaBUS RTS. TMC is the ones that sound similar to the 100 series Orion Vs and more hardcore than the Novas.

Nah, there isnt. I would've opened the window, but the wind would ruin the sound.
