Enjoy a video of a Toronto Transit Commission 1987 GMDD TC40-102N "Classic", #6223, entering Toronto Zoo during the 2010 Toronto Transit Commission Orion V/GM Classic Doubleheader Charter, on March 6, 2010. This vehicle has a Detroit Diesel 6V71N engine and an Allison V731 ATEC transmission.
6221 and 6223 were restricted buses for the Toronto Islands, and if one breaks down, the other would be required. However, since 6221 was currently serving the island, that left 6223 unused (and hence sent out for this final charter).

It sure was.
I wish I hadn't boarded #6223 again by accident after the Kingston Rd/401 stopover, I then would've had this footage as well.
At the end of the day, it doesn't really matter. It was really fun and big thanks to those who organized it so well.
