Hamilton Buses In 2006

[@ClassicTVMan1981X]

Only 8203 and 8206 among HSR's original six GMDD articulated buses remained by 2006; these two were renumbered 518203 and 518206 respectively. Another, 8202, was loaned to OC Transpo in Ottawa as 8222 and is still intact (not scrapped). When 8203 was rebuilt as 518203, its original 8V-71 engine was not suitable for rebuild so another one was transplanted into it; this transplant came from an outside acquisition: former Central Ohio Transit Authority 8165, a 1982 Grumman Flxible 870, which under HSR was numbered 8251.

I like the variety of buses in this video

[@5T3V3N-ns9gg]

Me too. I grew up in Hamilton in the 2000s, and since me and my family didn't have a personal car, we'd get around via HSR. Lots of fun riding the hi-floor Orion and GM buses back then.

[@5T3V3N-ns9gg]

Sadly, a lot of the hi-floor Orion and GM buses you see here aren't even around any more, some of the lo-floor novabus and fleet flyers are not in service anymore, either. There may be a few up at the HSR mountain garage, though, albeit scrapped out.

Those D40LF sounds like SEPTA New Flyer D40LF Buses In Philadelphia

[@thehamiltonfirefighter4746]

they sound like SEPTA? no they don't actually, SEPTA Sounds Way Different Than That

[@5T3V3N-ns9gg]

As someone who grew up in the 2000s and didn't have a family car, this was my childhood. I miss it, but also don't want to go back to Hamilton. Yuck.

16:01 to 16:06: Some bonehead blocks his face from the camera gives you the middle finger.
