@newflyer3000 - old comment, but no, this bus does not have the Allison B400R, it has the older HTB-748 Allison transmission.

@6V92TA Thats very true. I like cummins engines to but detroits are cooler.
-
@Dalek0122 Whats wrong with the sound of a 6v92?
-
@newflyer3000 It could easily be repowered by an ISL. And the tranny is the HT-748, not a B400R5

that bus sounded real good!

@lpcmidst128 I agree with you. Thats why they are my favorite engine because the sound very exotic and unique instead of a series 60 for example. I also have asperger syndrome so I tend to obsess about certain things. Although I kinda like cummins engines too. They have a pretty cool sound.

@ShinHolyAyato If you listen to a detroit diesel and a cummins you can hear a difference.

NOW THIS IS WHAT A REAL DETROIT DIESEL NEW FLYER SOUNDS LIKE! Man I love these buses.
is this bus powered by cummins ISL 330 HP?

Nope.....notice this bus was manufactured in 1991, and cummins ISL did not exist back then. This bus is powered by Detroit Diesel 6V92TA engine / Allison B400R5 5-speed

Great video, I like the sound very unique. The seating configuration look decent. Over here (SF Muni) the New Flyer D60s also have the same engine and transmission. It sounds exactly alike. Are the doors step down to open?
