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. ;) Thanks for sharing
i use your youtube videos as my white noise to help me sleep at night. also I am autistic. i like 15 passenger vans, and Airbus A321 aircraft as a hobby. i also like Yamaha stereo equipment.
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 my hometown of Springfield, Missouri, these buses were everywhere about ten years back, but eventually, the city purchased newer, more modern buses, and all of the New Flyer buses were retired out.
Really glad you bought this, lol saw that vid of it by Brighton beach. Been too long since those areas have heard a DD50G powered C40LF. Great investment dude I hope maybe I see you on the road driving this, lol
Yo I'm enjoying this ride!! I love whenever the gears change, you hear the Detroit sneezing. If you have this bus still, we should do a meetup with both of our D40LFs. You make me want to take my Old Blue out.
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.
Wait. So you're telling me that you can drive a City Bus, New Flyer, Personally??? That is AMAZING. This is Legal right? Because That's really Cool!! I gotta do some research in this cause I'm a fan of this, Great Video too!
Where is the whirring sound from? Does your bus have a hybrid motor? My apology for the lack of knowledge lol, Im not quite familiar with the engines these buses use
@@csouth28 I understand just some people don't pay attention in the streets and SEPTA HAS THEM BECAUSE A LOT OF PEOPLE BEEN GETTING KILLED BY NOT PAYING ATTENTION
@@csouth28 Nice, so I assume it's a late 90's bus. I always hear how it is really expensive to replace the tanks. How much did it cost you to do it? Time consuming too?
MAN Axles yes, 6 Cylinder? No. Lol. Detroit Diesel Series 50’s and Series 50G’s are 4 Cylinder Turbocharged engines. Detroit Diesel Series 60’s and Series 60G’s are the 6 Cylinder Turbocharged engines.

The bus really moves. I had no idea it can get going that fast and it's got decent handling.
In certain temps outside a cng bus sucks at a acceleration at times
I got an ex CATA bus. A 1978 RTS from seashore trolley museum had her. Ow for 20 years. I got a new flyer D60lf from Seattle. Love mine
This is perfect do more videos like this

Even the COTA Gillig Advantages and New Flyer Xcelsior XN40s sound quite similar especially that antilag “stututu” during braking
@@ag6371 they used similar engine setups pretty sure the cummins isl-G is just a normal isl running on cng instead of diesel.
Ah that 4-way flasher beeping lol

Best video ever series 50 gang 🤙
That is how you drive transit vehicles. Good job.
Driving this looks like such a smooth and fun job 💪🏼💪🏼👍

My guy I love ur bus. Especially that backfire sounds amazing. Too bad these buses have retired in New York. Amazing video tho.
With headphones all I can hear and feel is the bass of the DDC S50G 😂 🚌
I really miss both the natural gas and diesel version of this engine.
yeah like somebody said, this video makes me wanna be a bus driver..
This bus is perfect. My headphones even vibrate lol
Wow. Awesome Adam. 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾
Absolutely Magnificent!!! Love it Nephew! 🙌🏽👍🏽💯👏🏽
Thanks fellas 🙏🏾
I love how I was focusing on the engine sound more than the video since I haven't heard one from that time in sooo long
omg those backfires! they siund amazing!
That bus sounds great
nice video! always love these older flyers
80 got scrapped sadly... I wish it was still running. D:
The song if my daily office 👍🏾
im becoming a bus driver when i turn 18 for MBTA bc i rly wanna drive their busses such as the xcelsiors and maybe D40LFs or neoplans
Extreme speed... I love this..
Dang your going fast as ever

Beautiful driving!!

amazing operations! do you still drive this bus around to this day? would love to get a pic
Now this is how you drive a bus right here😎💯! Do you still have this bus now?
Thank You!
Where did you buy the used transit bus I really want to buy one in the near future
Yeah baby it's like I'm driving Bus Simulator 21
Do you still have this bus if so you gotta come to Atlanta with it
Nice video as always! Any chance of a roof exhaust or engine recording any time?
Neko Boy With Glasses yeah I’ll see what I can do in due time
What is the wheel called on the CNG buses ?
will you be hosting fan trips?
How were you guys effected by the corona virus
How much did this bus even cost you? also Amazing! Nice ass hauling!
Almost sounds like our old artic's we used to have. Believe the make was MANN?
Correct. These just the MAN Axles, which is why they sound similar.
@@csouth28 We had these 80s to late 90 artic. Were replace by New flyer's.
Where were you deadheading? I like the low whirring sound. Same sounds as our old MAN'S did.
Skunk Repo lol not really a deadhead it’s my personal vehicle, I bought it 2 months ago and was just exercising it.
csouth28 for how much and where did you buy it? I want a D-40LF or D-60LF
How much did you pay for it?
The backfires!
Wait. So you're telling me that you can drive a City Bus, New Flyer, Personally??? That is AMAZING. This is Legal right? Because That's really Cool!! I gotta do some research in this cause I'm a fan of this, Great Video too!
you can buy a new flyer if you want too
Yes it’s legal to own a transit bus.
how much did this bus cost?
Woah what this is yours? Holy shit
This bus sounds like SEPTA'S 2003-2005 New Flyer D40LF before they got overhauled
Where is the whirring sound from? Does your bus have a hybrid motor? My apology for the lack of knowledge lol, Im not quite familiar with the engines these buses use
Kronx nah that’s the MAN axles. All of the older New Flyer Low Floor’s mainly have these axles. Look it up on UA-cam and you’ll see.
@@csouth28 even the 2011-2013 MTA C40LFs have these axles. Love the sound of them tho so no complaints from me.
Can you make some more long videos like this
You Should get the caution bus is turning so they know when to be alerted when thier is a bus is turning
Jason Crable absolutely not, I’d rip that out. It’s so annoying to me. Lol:
@@csouth28 I understand just some people don't pay attention in the streets and SEPTA HAS THEM BECAUSE A LOT OF PEOPLE BEEN GETTING KILLED BY NOT PAYING ATTENTION
@@csouth28 Hey buddy
Is this bus engine Detroit Diesel S50G or Cummins C Gas?
S50
How fast were you going that bus got some power
school bus guru yeah it’s got surprisingly a lot of power for a CNG & I was doing about 43-45 mph. 50 mph at the most.
Lol that bus is moving !
Is the Engine a Detroit Diesel Series 50
And the transmission is a Allison B400R?
EnforcerOperators Series 50G
csouth28 but the transmission is a Allison B400R
EnforcerOperators yes
Vroom Vroom goes the Series 50G
Some guy shouting about Don’t go Below 78 or DOM Squad..
I can’t hear
He’s screaming..
Now she’s piped up
What?
Work Order?
Is the steering wheel's position fixed like that?
No that’s how I feel comfortable driving
@@csouth28 Oh I see, thanks. I asked because it's a very unusual positioning, seemed uncomfortable from here.
This makes me want to get a CDL.
Mc2MC, Has Mc2MC.
Keeping it REAL since you went A(Riel)... and jewed a Fish too
Did this bus had a DDS50 engine? Sure sounds like it.
Yes..
Were the CNG tanks replaced or is it running on diesel?
42luke roblox not running on diesel & the tanks were replaced in 2013
@@csouth28
Nice, so I assume it's a late 90's bus. I always hear how it is really expensive to replace the tanks. How much did it cost you to do it? Time consuming too?
if that isn't too personal on expenses.
42luke roblox I never replaced them, the agency I got it from replaced them in 2013.
42luke roblox I just bought it this year.
Yo you still have this bus? I haven’t seen you upload anything about this bus recently
Scrap pending
@@csouth28 Rip your scrapping it? Is it because the engine stop working or due to its age or something?
@@officialxdvrkness6984 I’m not working due to the pandemic and I don’t have time nor money to fix whatever is wrong with it 🤷🏾♂️
I’m looking for a new flyer D40LF any suggestions?
Just gotta watch auction sites like Public Surplus for example
@@csouth28 thanks 👍👍
Why You Open The Door? At 3:42
That Also Sound Like a Septa Bus
Does this one have a rear window?
No, C40LF’s don’t have rear windows.
@@csouth28 I love this unit already! Do you ever go to Canada with 80?
