Bus1883 Posted January 15, 2022 Report Share Posted January 15, 2022 I forgot to mention that #1213 has dying transmission and it was sluggish during most of the ride. When I got on at 71st to 87th the transmission sounded like it was tired. I remember listening to the sound of this bus from a video back in 2011 from a YouTuber named Tim Granzow and it sounded better and hyped before the rehabs started compared to today.

Someone did a “audio” of 1213 a few weeks ago saying it was dying but it sounded normal. I need someone to get another recording of 1213 so I can see how weird it is Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Depending on the schedule we're either running the gauntlet or we're cruising like turtles. I'll give you 5 buses that are really sluggish though. #1223,#1295,#1296,#1297 and #1364.

That suspension is bouncy as well with the front overhang being so far out as it is. The elder #1000s remind me of the MANs #4000s or even the #5300s. Just reliable all around. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
