It's amazing how much changes there have been within the last 17 years. The Neoplans and Icaruses are long gone, as are the Flexibles, the 1980's era articulated buses and 1960's era GM bus. The PATCO trains are virtually being rebuilt, the orange masks on the Broad Street trains are being reduced to small single stripes and the trolleys all have LED signage and automated announcements. The NBC-like melody and female voice has been replaced by a three not touch tone and man's voice. Most, if not all of the train stations have been or are in the process of being renovated. What a great look into a not so long ago past.

I really miss those Market-Frankford Line Almond Joy M3s.

@shirellehill1738 6 лет назад

The Volvo articulated buses were my favorite!!! I used to love to ride those and I grew up across the street from the depot where they were kept.

@wallyprice515 5 лет назад

I never even rode the volvos we only had 50

@enolamsamoht 2 года назад

They remind me of San Francisco's old M.A.N articulated buses.

Man.....i remember this like it was yesterday.....the old red white and blue, the roll signs on the kawasaki100se......the silverliner iv is still going strong

Best SEPTA RU-vid video ever.

@hiltonlive32grnrngr 2 года назад

1:09:01 I miss when the Kawasaki Trolleys used to have those roll signs. The white Helvetica font were a lot easier on the eyes than the orange digital signs the trolleys use today. In fact, all of Septa back then is SO much better and more fun to ride than it is today actually.

@remie4494 8 лет назад

By far one of the best period piece compilation of #NewJerseyTransitBuses including the #EaglesBuses, #MCI 9As and Bs, great Greyhound Equipment, #Flxible Metro Bs and Ds, wow!! So happy to watch this!!

@11kful 2 года назад

The scenery and routes have changed a little. The Chestnut Street buses don't stop at Independence Mall anymore. Some of the NJ Transit Routes don't go into Philly. anymore either. PATCO changed their fare riding system, gone are the magnetic tickets, just like SEPTA's tokens and paper transfers. Man, I miss those prices: 75 cents btw Downtown Philly & Downtown Camden, going to the Gallery and South Street was like too easy. SEPTA's Neoplans, NABIs, and NJ Transit's MCIs, and Flxibles are a WOW! I wish we had footage of Market and Chestnut Street in the 80s.

@malcolmwhite6637 Год назад

This video gives me flashbacks! I was a mechanic (3rd class) for S.E.P.T.A. for 14 years and recognize a few of those Neoplan buses that I may have worked on at some point! I saw an older GMC bus also..(60's)...some of those were around when I first started with the company!! What was even crazier for me was seeing that Krapf's coach near the end years after leaving S.E.P.T.A. I would end up there! Those Neoplans were a good bus..the NABI's or Ikcurus...(spelling)....were junk.....good video!!

@guildrich 8 лет назад

Oh snap! I didn't even know that SEPTA also had those Volvo B10's back in the day. I always thought NJT was the only one in America with those buses.

@KevinCNYC1991 8 лет назад

+guildrich SEPTA and Samtrans in California had them. RIPTA in Rhode Island had about 50 of the 40ft versions. OC Transpo in Ottawa almost bought Volvo artics in 1985.

@wallyprice515 5 лет назад

@guildrich I used to see a lot of them artics during my first two years in middle school and septa kept some until the republic convention in Philly in the summer of 2000 they only had 50 volvos in service

awww man, power 99 ad on the front of that bus....soooo 90's lol. I have always wondered if these buses had the a Detroit Diesel Powerplant in them because it sure sounds like it.

@RRansomSmith 6 лет назад

QuadroNVS everything back then did, but different model engines. NEOPLANs had 6V92, NABIs had DD50.

@bluer68 8 лет назад

When NJ Transit had REAL buses.......nowadays is Nabi 416.15s, Neoplan AN59 artics, and MCI D4000s

Crazy to see 3400 Series Neoplans back then and now present day 3400 series Excelsior. 20 years old in 99.

@DashTransit 3 года назад

They would’ve been 10 years old in 1999 since they were 1989 models, but I know what you mean I feel the same way when I think about it. Same with the 8xxx new flyers when the 8xxx used to be RTS buses

how come you never went to Frankford Terminal and videotaped? that also would have been great.

@DashTransit 6 лет назад

Do you mean back in 1999? The person who created this video did in fact go to Frankford Terminal back then. However, there is a lot of footage of Frankfrod from the 90's already on RU-vid (look at the MFL and Trackless videos). If you mean overall, I have a few modern videos of Frankford currently on RU-vid.
