Spent the day aboard (and tagging alongside) a heritage Montreal transit bus #55-001, a 1985 General Motors Classic bus. Now preserved and restored and in beautiful shape. Enjoy the sounds of this Detroit Diesel 6v71 motor.

Note: Sorry for the sun glare, it was an extremely sunny and warm mid-October day in Montreal, and I can't complain because the photos taken today were absolutely stunning!

I remember when these first came out in 84 . The most beautiful busses ever . Then the Nova busses came out , what a disappointment

I like the classic numbered 55-001

The Vivaldi of diesel engines. Although, I like the New Look better, I think the 71 engine sounds better with the Classic.
