Back in the 1980s through elementary, intermediate and High School those busses were popular. Every time riding with my older sister down Waianuenue Avenue after school, one of those old busses would kick on the jake and wake me up. I’ve always loved diesel powered engines. As a kid, I only got to ride on gas powered busses. The first time I got to ride on the Crown buss powered by the Detroit diesel engine was awesome. That was back in 1982.

Good for a very old street racer like me! I can make lots of noise and power shift all day, and not break any traffic laws or risk any lives!!! That’s the reasoning that got me into the bus hobby

NOTHING about this bus is bad. It sounds so good when shifting through the gears. That Detroit is pure ear candy to the point I would rather listen to that instead of music.

We had several Crown and Gillig coaches at Sonora High School in Sonora, CA. Almost all of them had the Road Ranger transmissions. The Crowns were all fitted with the 6-71, the Gilligs had Cat V8s in them. I used to love watching the drivers shift just like this, with no clutch. They were REAL bus drivers. Years later, I am now a transit operator, first with a bus, and now in light rail. I still dream of driving one of these old beasties, though. Childhood dreams 😌

the straight six detroit with the symmetrical header arrangement is probably my favorite sounding engine ever.

Also. It’s Crowns and Wards that just seem to run forever. Some of those buses top out at 30 years of service some districts still operate them. If they still made the parts they could probably run another 1 or 2 decades at the least

Amazing! How is it they were just put aside and not driven for thirty years? That Detroit Diesel sound is well remembered from the city transit buses here, back in the day.

@@aljenningscrownandgillig I highly doubt they even had to retire many of them. They just wanna be cool and hip with the new greener stuff. I mean I get it’s hard to maintain a bus after they quit manufacturing them. But even he really old buses probably still have service in them
