Seriously, I would have preferred the Voith DIWA D863.3 as a replacement for the ZF Ecomat, because of its distinctive retarder whistle and deep 1st gear.

The 96 V CNGs never came with any ZF transmission. They came with Allison B400R.

It should be noted that as of September 2007, the exclusive right turn lane at York Boulevard was eliminated, and integrated onto Keele.

Same exact BS we got on Long Island Bus...but younger (1996-1998)

The 1995 O5 CNGs have the same engine, but with a ZF Ecomat transmission. Those are cooler :)

[dyip90]

Our 1991 Diesels used to have the Ecomat - then problems arose and they 'upgraded' to the Allison B400R ;-)

Love the Engine on this bus!

I hope these 96s are going to be around for long time. Im not happy that 91s are retiring.

@MatcelloTomas928 Answer: it'll be replaced by 8335-8394 otherwise movement is possible. The Vs are getting replaced soon.

These busses use to have ZF transmissions when they first came into service.

This sounds like an L10G/B400R not a L10G/ZF like LIB has. very close though.

Finally, another fleet other than MTA Long Island Bus that has this Orion V CNG with this particular engine/tranny combo!!

[MrBobbylobious]

Isnt there a different engine on this bus, cause it sounds like the 1990-1992

[fedders4]
