A Visit to New Castle, PA Part 1

This is a video of part 1 of my journey to New Castle, PA to see what is out there. They have a very interesting system including Gillig Phantoms/Advantages, and Orion 1's with Detroit Diesel 6v92's, Series 50, and Cummins ISL.

Sorry about this video, it somehow did not get editited right, like showing buses idling for too long and you seeing my arm.

i live on the south side of Akron ,ohio and i know that newcaste ,pa is near the county line with ohio infact newcastle is the seat of its county and its right next to the county in ohio that has youngstown. iv looked at the metro system for youngstown, ohio and it looks very primitive they dont have lines going into all the parts of there county unlike here in my county. if both newcastle and youngstown extended there routes to the state line a person could ride from one city to the other.

@TheNecropolis20 New Castle transit and WRTA in Youngstown used to connect, but not anymore.

@librarian5602 You picked the wrong city. Philly and Pittsburgh are awesome. I love my state, just not New Castle lol. Luckily you will be close to Pittsburgh.

Also, it was winter so of course it will look dark and dreary.

@ClassicTVMan81 I remember riding the LANTA Orion Is; now that I think about it, those New Castle Orions couldn't have come from LANTA. LANTA's O-1's also had front and rear plug doors (similar to the old PAT/SEPTA/PennDOT Neoplan AN-435/40's). See Part 3 and you'll see what I'm saying.
