MTA NYCT Bus: Last & Final Days of the "Retired" 2003-2004 Orion VII CNG's

[@TransportationHub]

Nice video tribute. Those Orion VII CNGs (2002-2019) will always hold a special place in the transit community's heart. The 3rd childhood behemoths behind the RTS-06s and D60HFs respectively.

[@transportationnetwork1324]

Same.

[@undersoldierx7563]

Rest up there Orion 7s 😢😢

[@AutomotiveTaurus]

Though these are my last favorite Orion VIIs, I will remember them as the toughest and loudest buses of NYCT/MaBSTOA. Do you remember my review of these ??? This will be redone.

[@transportationnetwork1324]

Yes I remember it and cool.

[@edwinpenafort8750]

Will the MTA retain one of the 2003-2004 Orion VII CNG buses for the museum fleet? It will be great to see those buses in the original scheme and in black back again.

[@transportationnetwork1324]

Nahhh Sadly the MTA will not preserve them.

[@BritanniaPacific]

No way, I saw one of these on the b4 near ocean avenue two days ago. Oh well, there should be some room for the Orion vii ng to replace them, if applicable.

[@ARod20004]

Will they put this in the transit museum?

[@transportationnetwork1324]

No

[@jefftrotter8152]

It's a shame they do preserve these buses

[@transportationnetwork1324]

They can't perserve them due to their tanks being g expired, plus it's expensive to get new ones.
