The original M-63 seats had black vinyl padding on top. In subsequent years, however, these were replaced by the all-plastic type seen in this video, presumably due to easier cleaning, wear and tear over the years, and their vulnerability to vandalism of the vinyl. In addition, the original advertisement panels above the windows and doors were unwisely covered by a transparent, flammable material similar to celluloid that caused a serious fire. The vertical grab-bars at the ends of each car were later replaced by triple grab-bars inside the M-73 models. The same triple grab-bars are also inside the Azur cars.
There is nothing that has that powerful sound like the 92TA paired with the VR731. It's a great combo, made my commutes that little bit better back in Halifax, Victoria, and London.
Ça va coûter plus cher et comme toujours les délais ne seront pas respectés ... la corruption au Québec on connaît ça ... Le nouveau CHUM , les routes , le tunnel LHP , le stade , les rues de Montréal avec des nids d autruches ... etc .... en plus les trains du REM ont des défauts de fabrication ... géré par la Caisse de dépôts qui n a aucune expertise ... des incompétents au Québec
Glad to see 15-140 still running strong! Our 92 classics had the same engines as your 15-xxx classic buses! Sure miss them they’ve been gone here 7 years now
@@jesterwhl Interesting. For Montreal, it was 6V71 from 1983 to 1986, then 6V92 from 1989 to 1995. In 1995, while most operators in Quebec opted for Cummins C8.3 with Allison B400R, the STM remained loyal to Detroit. As for 15-140, it's its 10th retirement anniversary, and I hope they're taking it out for a charter soon!
