Nope....would have been lost in many moves since '78, anyway. I think at the end everything was replaced by Flxible New Looks (35096) and an AM General 9640. Branding changed from Community Transit to Ithaca Bus. |

Thanks - I'd been looking forward to getting down there for a while. I was very interested to see the O7's in TCAT colors (I figured the Gillig 1100's would look just like the 600's, 700's and 900's). |

I think the Orion VIIs might have looked a bit better in the original scheme that they had prior to the Gilligs, but it still doesn't look bad.How many Orion Is, if any, did you see running around? Last I heard a few have yet to bite the dust. |

I didn't see any of the Orion I's, but I only spent a short time downtown in the rush hour so I might have missed them. There was a group of them parked out in back of the garage. |

Nice photos - there are a lot of neat ways to incorporate the hills of Ithaca into images. A lot of changes since 2006 - much of the fleet has turned over with the RTS's gone and the Orion I's just about replaced, and route 52 is now directly operated by TCAT with full-sized buses. |
