This will take you back to the "good old days", before New Flyer was "New", before Neoplans and NABIs made it to the US, before K-cars came to Philadelpia, and before Flxibles went Metro.

There are old looks, GMC New Looks, and some more Flxible New Look pictures. Still have a few more to upload, so keep looking out for them. If you have any from way back when, including the RTSs and the 8000 series Neoplans, please post them!

Yes indeed that was Woodland back before the fire, when it was essentially a depot and not the heavy duty maintenance center it is now.

Hello everyone. It's Darryl. I'm the moderator of the SEPTA Transit Vehicle News Network Yahoo Page. I'm glad that you're enjoying the photos I recently added to the Vintage Photo Gallery. I wanted to include those photos for those of us like myself who like the SEPTA and PTC buses of yesteryear. I was reading a comment about the old Woodland Depot and I have to admit that I miss the old depot. I liked it better than the maintenance shop that's at the same location now.

I remember som of the past vehicles like the 8000 series neo's and the 35 foot GMC's but I never saw a Volvo B10M or a 40 Foot GMC up close & personal. I wish I did though.
