    Having shown scenes from Frankford Terminal in the last flashback video, it's time to head to the other end of the El and visit 69th Street Terminal for some SEPTA bus, trolley, and El action....

    I was a young kid in the 90s those were the best time of my life when buses were Detroit Diesel powered buses

    Very good footage. I remember riding these buses in the 1980s and 90s. it's hard to believe all these buses are gone now !

    Can you imagine being a SEPTA fan and a college student during break at this time? I would go joyriding all day!

    I was then a teenager when I first set foot here to this place I witnessed all of the buses & trains come in & outta this terminal because I was then looking for an old classmate who’d moved to Upper Darby back in the Summer of 1987 in which I’d found her living in one of the apartment buildings a few blocks away and seeing her was then a happy event but her mother wasn’t since she was asking questions about how did I know where to go and all that & later kept her indoors since that encounter with her which was the last time I’ve seen her .

    The GMC rts buses and the Budd cars were the coolest

    Joe thank you. My God look at that 8567 😃😊. I'm so glad that we still have the Kawasaki cars.

    Around the 6:50 mark I think one of those Neoplans was the 8566, my stalker out of that group. 8566 was like that girl back in school who always had feelings for me. I miss that 8566. I think 8567 was headed back to the garage whereas 85## (8566??) looked like it was finishing up as an outbound 107 to Macdade Mall with no return to 69th Street. 107 and 111 finished early as shit during those days.

    Thank you for the nostalgia! Watching these videos from the past brings back memories and being a 90s baby it makes me feel like the 90s are still here!

    I was 10 years old when this was recorded but I lived in Detroit.

    I've never seen a neoplan with a tailpipe at the bottom.

      All of SEPTA's except the artics were like that, yep.

    buses that I catch often from out of 69th street depot (SEPTA'S VICTORY DEPOT): 107, 109, 110, 111 and sometimes the 123.

    The farebox you see inside 8719, are still in use today in 2023(27 years later), all they did now was hook up the Septa Key reader to them

    8579, he was a great guy (that was a great bus).

  • @daniel022209

    Those Neoplans at drove off at the 6:00 minute had the aftercoolers on in their engines hence the different tone in the motors.

  • @djinteractive2013
    @djinteractive2013 Před 2 lety +3

    Did they have Allison transmissions??

    • @trainman1971
      @trainman1971  Před 2 lety +5

      The 1300 and 8000-series Neoplans had Allisons; the 3000-series Neoplans had ZF transmissions.

    • @zazaranger5
      @zazaranger5 Před rokem

      ​​​​, the ZF ecomat, the 5800, and the 8000 series New Flyers have/had the ZF

    Never understood why those Budd markers stayed on for both ends

    As much as I miss the Silverliner III trains, and the Kawasaki trolleys having the rollsigns with the red & blue stripe scheme (at 4:00 for example), I also miss those Neoplan buses. I swear Septa was so much fun to ride back in the 1990s, but i was a little girl back then. Septa sucks now

    • @trainman1971
      @trainman1971  Před 2 lety

    Did you film yourself riding Greyhound lines buses before let me know if you did but probably not

    Back when the system had color.
    Not this bland stuff you see nowadays.
