Guess What's Wrong

What is wrong or shall I say oddball about the interior of this bus? And trust me, it's not the obvious!

The seats...the bus was reseated with typical MTA blue?

But of course, I'm guessing that's the obvious...I can't wait to see what the answer is!

What is that white thing next to the last single seat by the rear door? Is that a wheelchair control box?
Also, does one side have bell cords and the other push bells?

The emergency exit operating instruction sticker on the left side window in the picture is mounted cock-eyed in the center of the window?

No forward facing seats behind wheelchair seats. Or rear door cover panel is open.

The engine cover (or whatever the official term for that thing in the center is...) is different than the other MTA Bus units. They originally came with a metal cover that has an upward angle (and has no blue on it). It appears they used one from a retired NYCT unit.

It is the A/C. That entire rear wall vent set up is from a 1999 model Orion 05.501. None of the Ex-NYC DOT Orion V Suburbans were delivered with this wall. There is now 3 of the NYC DOT Suburbans that have this particular wall.

Compare and Contrast....

Original Wall:


Wall in 750 and two Ex-QSC Units:



Thanks for playing!

Would the changes in the back wall indicate a change in HVAC units from say a Carrier to a Thermo King or vice versa?
