Oh? I thought they would repair it after some time. If that's confirmed then that's too bad

@@transitshowcase2668well Not only that Remember 2151, 5197, 6140 was Retired due to that crash. 5171 Crashed in 2015 but made it to 2021. 19186 Crashed in 2021 but still’s active. 17503 crashed and it’s still active. 19129 and 19229 crashed and it’s retired. 4185 crashed in 2014 and it’s still around and it’s currently training. 2133 Crashed also but in 2015 and made it to 2020.

@@marc-anthonyrigg7212 No, that was 1886. Also a unit from Portmore, 1895 would later suffer the same fate over a year later while on the toll road. I'm am hearing rumours though, that work is being done to return that unit to service

@@marc-anthonyrigg7212 This unit has always been yellow as it arrived in 2011, 3 years after JUTC began ordering their buses in that colour, also there are actually _several_ white units that were repainted yellow, those are 2007 units and there are about 3-4 of the 10 remaining

@@transitshowcase2668 did you see the air vents over the passengers because the one that was repainted in yellow don't have them while the one that was always in a yellow color have them

@@marc-anthonyrigg7212 Yes I saw them lol I can easily tell which one is a repaint ofc which this unit isn't

Not at the time this video was taken actually, which was on the same day I took the 595X Downtown video last September. But yes I was puzzled to find that seemingly the entire fleet of Proterras was grounded late April

It's out of my hands right now unfortunately as my backlog ran out before I could record any more videos of them 🤷‍♂ Still in Florida... Description has been updated with an explanation

It's out of my hands right now unfortunately as my backlog ran out before I could record any more videos of them 🤷‍♂ So sorry Description has been updated with an explanation

Yeah there were quite a few routes I wanted to do (22, 35, 40 to 132nd+8th, 42) but didn't have time to do them all. Also the description and timestamps should be ready before tomorrow, a little busy now

Haven't been down there since last December, but it's likely they do although I'm not sure how much longer they're planning to hold on to them since they're approaching 20 years of age. Also you can only do the 301 as the 302 is entirely reserved for Ocean Reef Club members and staff (this was covered in my 38 video)

Thanks for the recommendation 😃 Will definitely consider that option next time!

Still kinda bitter I never got any of BCT's 500s... Even after getting a couple of the 2002 Gilligs such as 213, 220 and 222 Luckily I got one of MDT's 4100s on the 22 back in 2021 but I couldn't get a recording cause the pathetic phone I had was out of space

Well, without giving you my opinion, have a look for yourself: drive.google.com/file/d/14Qahg2XZV7HDHU7XVKMmhKCrrK5pXy_T/view?usp=drivesdk

Yeah still miss them. Never even got to ride any of the ones Miami got. The XD60s that replaced them are... kinda underwhelming as they feel very... restrained compared to the other artics.

@transitshowcase2668 the miami ones were all hybrid I think You talking about the 1400 artics, or the later ones? Guess you weren't around for the 600s either

@@alexharris2495 No I am referring to the 2200s artics 2285-2299 as the 1400s artics 1430-1446 did not replace any artics. There are a couple videos of them on my channel. Also I HAVE taken the 600s artics but this was before I started filming transit, though I have a picture of 606 my mom took in 2015

@transitshowcase2668 ohok. I haven't gotten to see or ride the 2200s. Haven't been to broward in a while. The 600s were really great. My favourite buses were the 05 NABIS Though.

Lol this ride was actually around 100 minutes, but the video isn't that long since I always pause my recordings whenever the bus isn't moving (such as at bus stops or stoplights), something that every transit CZcamsr should do as it is much better for viewer experience than watching 2-3 minutes of standstill 🤷‍♂

Wonder if this thread will be any better, try sending your socials under this one.

They had a 2015 youtong.... they kept it at Spanish town depot. Haven't seen it in a while

Cummins beat them by far

@@alexharris2495 nahh bro u should listen to the voith Enviro 200 sound in London for stagecoach london buses. it is so nice

​@@alexharris2495 Just seeing this comment but fyi, Cummins doesn't make transmissions so there is no reason to compare them with Voith ℹ️

Thanks! Though I should inform you that articulated B7Rs do not exist. Are you talking about the bus in the video linked below? 👇 czcams.com/video/80QzSATWgQo/video.htmlsi=oBFyvo1ss-0jkJD3 JUTC also doesn't have a Yutong E8, do you mean the one that's been here since 2015 or the brand new one that started running this week?

@@transitshowcase2668 Yep i was talking about that one in the video

Yeah I used to take it sometimes back when I lived in Portmore. Don't have any recordings of it though. In fact for the foreseeable future this is going to be my second to last JUTC video on this channel as my backlog is coming to an end 😶

​@@transitshowcase2668 excuse me but...can you do my video on your channel about me riding a 17A please, that would make me very happy

Yeah I saw that one, great video of the longest crosstown in BCT lol. The 62 is technically longer but north/south for a significant distance so it's not a "true" crosstown if that makes sense. Btw have you ever ridden route 15?

Nice, one disadvantage I've noticed with filming in 60fps on my phone is that there's no ois... Still, it's better than not having 60fps video at all ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯

Oh! Haha... actually it doesn't seem that JUTC is buying any more Volvos; the bus in the video is from the Chinese brand Golden Dragon. Apologies for the disappointment 😅

God don't exist pray to Halla instead

Hey John, telling you as a frequent rider of those buses that that's incorrect. The 2022 artics have Allison B500Rs while the 2022 Gilligs have ZF Ecolife. I have a couple videos featuring the 2022 New Flyers that you can watch and compare to this one

I'd more rather BCT take over the 23 altogether though that doesn't seem likely. As for the cutaways, my only real problem with them is the excessively bouncy ride quality. In Jamaica there exists a kind of bus called the Toyota Coaster which would be a much better fit for the route imo but I think those are illegal in the US 🤷‍♂️

Not a manual lol All Diesel and CNG city buses use 6.speed autos
