@JamaicaQnzFreak Awsome! Thank you so much. My sister and I found one parked in Woodlake, California. From the huge bolts all over the sides, we were thinking 20's. 48 is way newer than what we thought lol. The rust on it didn't help much either. :P .....But this bus is labeled and painted identical to the one in the video. I pray they restore it
I used to drive for New York Bus from '84-'87. The Eagle shown is 1502 and I actually drove it....lol. The Eagles were by far the quickest off the line. NYB tried out a few different engine configurations, one with a turbo, a blower and a twin turbo. They settled on the turbo. I used to love the look on motorists faces when from a red light the Eagle would dust them...lol. Eventually the MCI's were phased in, but the Eagle was the most fun to drive. ;)
Thanks for posting this! I remember the bus in the second video - I used to ride that one when I was very young. In fact, I think they were discontinued around 1975 (when I was 5). The other buses were before my time.
what year is the bus at 0:57?
