Sometime this week I spotted 5199 and 5181 repainted. 5199 was spotted on the 26 and the 32 and 5181 was spotted on Wayne Avenue with destination sign reading H Ogontz and Cheltenham. Did not know if it was on the 53 with a broken sign or if it really was the H.

I rode the 104 Fri - Sun quite frequently this summer. NABI's are the mainstays during mid-day, also covering alot of the express trips.

The NABI's at Victory are run similar to the Neoplans at Frankford; rush hour & mid-day (but with more lee-way compared to the Neoplans). They tend to get put on the stop & go routes such as the 104, 105, 108, 112, 113, 115 & 116. It's rare to see a NABI on any other route than the 105, 113 & 108 on weekends.

In other news, In the last three weeks, I've spotted 5154, 5156 & 5158 & 5244 ("The Beast") on Callowhill District routes.

AHHHH 5681 was not overhauled to a cummins. I rode it on the 47 just now the driver said " they did not get to this one "


everytime a ride a 47 with a cummins the block before i get off the driver presses the gas and I cant get to the handle bar. It is like a jet is trying to suck me in that is one good engine.

I thought i saw 5683 without a cummins yesterday
I rode a new flyer with the stop request sign missing
rode a new flyer 0verhauled on the 26

What is a penske rental truck doing in fern rock yard?

next time i am late for school i will tell the teacher that i was on one of thoses old buses  I will tell her    I could not reach the ding cord.

I rode 5681 on the 22 last week and it still had the DD50 engine.
