The first one was road tested here in NYC, but didn't run in passenger service. That bus had the original Orion 7 look, which didn't have the rounded drivers window. The second unit which did test in passenger service out of Mother Clara Hale and later went down to SEPTA ended up back at Orion and became a demo. Because of the mileage of that unit, another 6365 was built and shipped to the MTA between buses 6487 and 6488. If you look at 6365, its body lines are closer to the 6490 and up batch than the 6366-6489 batch of the order. |
