These Orion Vees were shot in Oriskany in August 1996. Three NYCT buses plus a training (demo) bus.

those are some great shots, too bad you wasn't there around the Earlier 90s thats when PATs were being built and delivered, those NYC ones look sweet (compared to now) I always did love the Orion V, those are like the most comfortably buses to me and its original...nothing beats that.

Awesome, the Orion V Suburbans from 1996 are my favorite buses, especially 625.
