    Thanks to coronavirus, I am an out-of-work motorcoach driver
    Slightly embarrassed to admit I watched this because I miss being behind the wheel
    Yes, I was checking the mirrors every few seconds as you went down the road. ;)

    I grew up in Akron, Ohio and as a kid they had New Flyer CNG buses on the METRO fleet but retired them for Gillig but that engine sound definitely is a memory I never thought I would hear again. Thank you for sharing this!

    In Madison County, Illinois, we had the D30LF and D40LF's . D30LF's were 1998's and D40LF's were 1997s. The D30s had Cummins ISC/ Allison B400R. And the D40s had the Detroit Series 50 and the Allison B400R, they also had the iconic musical MAN axles. They were retired from 2010-2012 in replacement of our 37 30 footer and our 35 40 footer Gillig BRT's. Some of our New Flyers are still being operated by Airports, and Lorenz Bus Service has some.
