Tulare Intermodel Express 2009 Blue Bird Ultra LF CNG #2026807 viewsThese were Tulare's first CNG Low Floor buses bought in 2009. They are 35ft in length, powered by Cummins Westport B gas, and have Allison B300R Transmissions. These ones are old, though the drivers tell me that they've had issues even when they were new. These ones don't have a speed limt at 65mph compared to the Gilligs.Apr 21, 2024 at 09:18 PM

Santa Cruz Metro - Orion V CNG #2306527 viewsTHIS IS A RARE ONE!
These Orion Vs were originally powered by a DD50 EGR like the 2003 New Flyer buses. However, the CNG enclosure is from ElDorado National CNG buses. AND, it uses a John Deere 6081H. These also have only one door as a suburban configuration.
This should be a variant on the Orion V bus for OMSI 2!

Tulare Intermodal Express 2015 Gillig Low Floor #2030785 viewsI start off with the first Gillig Low Floor I ever rode. Tulare bought Four Gillig Low Floors numbered from 2028 to 2031, all are 35ft in length, powered by Cummins ISL-G, and have Allison(B300R or B400R) Transmissions. The drivers are fond of these ones because Tulare has somewhat old buses. It is rumored that Tulare will be getting another batch of these in the future.Apr 12, 2024 at 10:53 AM

Visalia Transit Orion VII OG #62621615 viewsI always saw this one Taunting me when I go home from college. So I had some free time and rode this one. I even recorded my first bus ride video. Powered by John Deere 6081H, Allison B400R(maybe)

EDIT 12-26-17: Found out a little after the video was posted that this one has a ZF Transmission.

Santa Cruz Metro - 2008 New Flyer C40LF #2808?409 viewsThis C40LF is a part of the last batch of C40LFs Santa Cruz ordered before the C40LFR models. This one sports the ISL-G rather than the C Gas unlike the 2006, 2003 and 2002 models. This one also sounded nice :)
I also didn't grow up with this model.

Santa Cruz Metro - 2003 New Flyer C35LF(Ex-D35LF) #2213506 viewsThis is a bad picture I know, but It's what I managed to get.
I did though record footage of it entering the transit center.
The 2003(Ex-2002) C40LF and C35LFs were originally Diesel powered by DD50 EGR, until Santa Cruz decided to convert these to CNG models. They sound awesome!
