I have a question.. With the overhead wire, do you get a longer range of power, with out the feed wire on the track?

cool bus :) who else is voting for Donald Trump this election

Vieux tas ferail bon pour la scrappppppppp

What's next? Funny car races in the snow?

That was pretty cool and they sound awesome

Could the smoke be lethal ?

I'd recommend making the short walk to the Winthrop Street bridge for an even better shot. It's higher from the tracks than even the College Avenue bridge, and you can see the train coming all the way from West Medford and as it trails off around the bend towards Medford/Tufts.

Ex Erie MU car

Looks like a 35' footer.

Damm I miss driving those buses

That bus looks better than the junk most transit properties have today.

I MISS THESE THINGS!

Like Music 🫠

Looks like a 7700 or 7800 we had in Buffalo at the nfta started in 1981 it came with a blower mounted on the engine and air ride suspension as well as a road speed governor for the transmission.

Those horns also bring back memories of the North Shore Line and the later cars of the Chicago Aurora and Elgin.

Congratulations, Seashore!

This train isn't enroute to Washington as this is a Keystone Service. The Keystone Service runs from Harrisburg (Southbound/Westbound Terminal) and New York (Northbound/Eastbound Terminal)

That looks interesting! 😀

Epic speed!

They go so fast on those lines I love it

you know what would be faster than the train?

Awesome video bro

That was a good event God bless

My favorite SDM 5301's

Miss those SDM's oh the Road buy 1992 only charter. And off the Rd 1994 on charter

Love it. Reminds me of my childhood.

WONDERFUL

Do they let visitors have cab rides?

Was this bus being scrapped? just looking at the gun shots on the windsheilds of this and the rough shape of the other buses. Those double arm wipers are very rare. I drove a 63 GM like this and if the transmission linkages aren't in top shape, it's a bastard to shift.

Nice shot!

That's a Detroit 6V-71 engine. I always preferred the Detroit 8V-71 over the smaller less powerful 6 cylinder. It's just good to see that it's still around.

Miss those buses they were off the road by 1994

Only one problem with these FB buses...replacing the windshield would cost more than replacing the bus itself.🚍

Love old buses...I have driven all of 'em.

Is this at the Illinois Railway Museum ?

Really nice video. I enjoyed

Why did I watch this? What was the point of me watching this, I even replayed it 4 times

Where,Where,Where??? Which track???

If you can't run down the track,Crawl!

In Jersey we had a TON of these Stick GM buses. ALL used for NYC runs but some were even used intra-state. Just about every New Jersey bus line had Stick GM's.

it's too bad that you now need diving equipment to see most of these cars,

I think that is my old bus ex Vanderhoof glass top sightseer. SDM5302 that bus is at seashore trolley museum now

rip

NICE! You got the third rail fireworks

Counterpoint. Seattle/King County metro here in the Seattle area kept a fleet of 1954 busses going until the early 1980's because they had hydramatic auto transmissions that had 4 speeds and worked reasonably well. What was wrong with the operators of this bus that they saw fit to buy a manual transmission. I wouldn't want to drive a city bus this way and I don't think it can be done today

This is the sound leaving the Port Authority Bus Terminal in New York City on the NJ bound buses back in the day… When that bus would leave that glass partitioned loading platform and exit the buildings down the ramp! And you see the view of the bustling city below from the third floor level…To me that was bus heaven!

What a great start!

Like the bus 🚌, Hated this modern moter , But I love this bus

Nice layout, Eric. Were there many visitors?

Will the CE car go twice as fast with both poles up?
