Honestly, I actually love the startup even tho it is having problems. I rode the same exact unit several months ago, and there were no problems with it thankfully.
Yeah like the garbage Orion III’s, VI’s, and S50 VII’s were any good. Novas are solid and well built and have many clever features including the single piece windshield, all glass doors, rooftop cooling system, all-wheel disk brakes, removable side skirts, etc.
Trimet (Portland) had gotten some Nova Bus LFS Arctics for FX (BRT line) and the bolts for the steering were either lose or missing. That a recall. Maybe we would’ve gotten some 60ft Xcelsiors if Trimet’s relationship with New Flyer wasn’t bad. And it looks like we are going to have to buy from them if we want more 60ft buses
@@AznIntegra521 Gillig doesn't make articulated buses, if they did we would've bought them since almost all the fleet is Gillig except for the D40LFRs (getting retired soon), Xcelsiors and that one D60LF we have
It’s probably something with the electrical system, which makes the bus think it’s turned off but it’s not. Which means every time he turns it on it thinks he is turning it off right after
@@crescenttransit54studios agreed mississauga transit/ Miway has 2011-2013 model hear 60 footers, there amazing. Much smoother ride and less rattling compared to the Novas. Mississauga still has a handful of there 2008-2009 new flyers, they were pretty good to. But they're getting to be old and soon to be retired. But I'm a new flyer man, don't care for the 40 foot novas either.

Honestly, I’ve never had a problem when nova buses breakdown for me. They just run without any problems.
the *wink wink wink* alarm that sometimes goes off in Novabus LFSes like this makes me laugh.
I know right, same.
@@Train_and_bus_fan Lol
Nice video
What’s that alarm sound with the Nova Bus

How come some of the Novas don’t have that screeching parking brake sound??

They could have easily gone to gillig as well for some arctic busses

When the driver open the door, the bus shuts off automatically, when driver close the door and apply acceleration the bus starts
That’s how the Nova e hybrid works
Yes I know.
@@TheVolvoFan564 guess the driver doesn’t know that
What was the route (and the driver finally got it at the end)
108
Thnx
facts
WOW
We Got Nova Buses In Philly
These Nova Buses are the worst at starting up, they take long to startup. No wonder these buses break down a lot.
Indeed they made service gazillion times worse.
Is this the bus route 108A
108B
Cool
We've got these out in Mississauga to, they aren't my favorite. Much prefer the newflyer articulated.
New Flyer is better than 60 ft Nova Bus

@@jacktfowler246 hope Toronto Transit Commission get New Flyer Industries Artics
@@crescenttransit54studios They are buying ~60 2023 XDE60
Damn he is probably new
No original longtime operater who tried to start the bus but it went off on and off
Something tells me you don't like Novas very much...
Yup cause they suck
@@crescenttransit54studios I agree orions are so much better
isn`t it a surprise that despite the fact that it the "Toronto" transit commission they don`t have any New Flyer busses not even old ones
they have 25 electric xcelsiors
@@Sam-iy3vd true but that's only relatively recently
the last ones retired in 2016. new ones were delivered like a week ago
D40lf?
Mta buses though 😭
Toronto Transit Commission but thanks
@@crescenttransit54studios no I'm comparing
@@maxinewilliams269 oh ok thanks for notifying
Novas are the worst buses that TTC has got in over 100 years
LFS Artic is kinda alright but some operates hate it

I think they are one of the worst buses built in the 21st century.
@@user-tr9rw7ne8x indeed hope I film the broken down ones
Could be an issue with this nova starting
