Eagle Model 10
Winners Take All (1987)
It's a Model 10, which entirely lacks the top part of all windows that open inward. 2011-12-06 21:19

VDL DB 300 Wright Pulsar Gemini 2
Dag (2010-2013)
There's no such Wright bodywork called Fusion Gemini 2. If a Wright bodywork has the name "Fusion," the bus would be in the form of an articulated bus. If a Wright bodywork has the name "Gemini," the bus would be in the form of a double-decker bus, such as the one above.

The bus above has a Wright Pulsar Gemini 2 bodywork. You can see pics of them here and here. The pic of the bus in the Flickr link you posted, which incorrectly identifies the body as "Wright Eclipse Gemini 2," also has a Wright Pulsar Gemini 2 body.

walter wrote @ShortCappy: Lateef is already working on this series

I know. I never planned on doing this series, unless I have to take some shots of the same bus and post them in a page as I identify them by fleet number and/or the details.

Lateef wrote And he also took my pictures because I hadn't separated those RTSes yet. Please be patient ShortCappy, I'm rather busy these days.

Alright. I thought you were ignoring my comments. I'm sorry for stealing the pics you created and I will delete my submissions.

1982 GMC RTS, an ex-NYC Transit bus. 2011-12-02 00:22

That's correct. [Image: happy-smiley-8769.gif]

The model is MC-9.

1984 GMC RTS
NYPD Blue (1993-2005)
rtsbusman1997 wrote Bus in Ep 3.06 is a 1990 model. I can see the 83XX fleet number.

In my view, it looks like it had an 8200-series fleet number. Either way, it's a 1990 TMC RTS.

rtsbusman1997 wrote 3.11 is at least a 1986 model as indicated by the windows (windows were updated starting in late 1996-early 1997).

That's #8625, which is a 1994 TMC RTS. The first thumbnail shows a clear view of the aforementioned fleet number. The second thumbnail shows that it sported an Alcoa wheel hub at that time. The third thumbnail shows that it sported an Alcoa wheel bearing and no porkchop window.

rtsbusman1997 wrote 3.17 is PA2573, a 1981 model.

Actually, it's PA2673, which is a 1982 GMC RTS. Here's a thumbnail shot without the headlight glare over the fleet number:

rtsbusman1997 wrote 3.22 is PA2605, a 1982 model.

Agreed.

Can an admin create a group page for the buses in 3.17 and 3.22, along with creating pages for the buses in 2.05, 3.06, and 3.11? I hate to see all of the RTS buses of different makes and different years grouped in a single page.

Volvo B10 M Jonckheere Jubilee
Internal Affairs (1990)
Gag Halfrunt wrote At the risk of asking a stupid question, did Jomckheere ever export to the USA?

I don't know if Jonckheere did that or if it's another manufacturer responsible for the assembly process. I've never heard of Jonckheere until I had identified the body on this bus.
2011-11-29 00:31
Eagle Model 10
Village of the Damned (1995)
Yes, it is. I was going to say Model 10 based on the roof cap, but the door height is telling me that it may be a Model 05.

Is there a closeup shot of the dashboard?

Volvo B10 M Jonckheere Jubilee
Internal Affairs (1990)
No.

The bodywork is definitely a Jonckheere Jubilee. As for the make and model, either it's a Volvo B10M or a Leyland Tiger based on the position of the front axle under the first passenger window that matches that on the above coach. It's not a Scania K112, a Scania K113, or a DAF SB 2300 due to the position of the front axle on those coaches being about 1 foot behind the position of the front axle on the above coach.

MCI MC-8
Rich Man, Poor Man - Book II (1976-1977)
That's an MC-8. The front end is more modern than an MC-7. Also, the destination sign is located right behind the door side windshield instead of on top of the windshield like the MC-7s. 2011-11-26 22:38
MCI MC-8
Over the Top (1987)
That's an MC-8. If it was an MC-7, it would have a square-shaped window on the door and it wouldn't have a more modern front end. 2011-11-26 22:38
1981 GMC RTS
A Gifted Man (2011-2012)

I agree with rtsbusman that this is a 1981 GMC RTS, which, according to OMOT, was an ex-NYC Transit bus #PA1576. In the first thumbnail, you can clearly see the porkchop window on the backside of the bus, which none of the Novabus RTSes have this feature. In the second thumbnail, you can see an old NYC Transit fleet number "1576" (without the "PA" prefix) inside the bus.
2011-11-26 21:29
MCI MC-8
Heartbreak Ridge (1986)
It's an MC-8. The door's window isn't in the shape of a square and the front end has a modern appearance than an MC-7. 2011-11-26 21:13
Eagle Model 05
Altered States (1980)
Eagle Model 05 2011-11-25 23:39
MCI MC-7
Almost Dead (1994)
It's an MC-7. The front end is flat with a square-shaped driver's window, unlike on an MC-8. 2011-11-25 20:26

Prevost H3-45
Sex and the City (1998-2004)
It's an H3-45. You can tell based on the 3 baggage compartments next to each other between the front axle and a large vent, which isn't shown above. An H3-41 has 2 baggage compartments between the front axle and a large vent. 2011-11-23 16:28

1963 GMC TDH 5303
Gloria (1980)
The year is wrong. NYC Transit #s 6605 and 6788 were built in 1965. 2011-11-22 21:36
1969 GM T6H 4521 A 'New Look'
Cannon (1971-1976)
After doing some research, I found out that this is the exact bus that appeared in season 1, episode 15 of Cannon. One of the clues is the license plate ID. 2011-11-21 23:10
GMC 'Buffalo Bus'
They All Laughed (1981)
This is a GMC "Buffalo Bus." While it's in a Short Line livery, it was probably operated by Hudson Transit Lines at the time. Here's a pic of a similar bus (the one on the right) in that livery, but without the scenic windows: Link to "s195.photobucket.com"

No, the original dvd picture is not any clearer than the above capture. :/

Damn. Looks like I won't be able to tell if this is supposed to be a 1982 Grumman-Flxible 870 ADB or a Flxible Metro A ADB.

1953 GMC TDH 3714 'Old Look'
Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull (2008)
This is a 1953 TDH-3714 "Old Look," the same bus that made an appearance in four other movies on this site. 2011-11-19 04:29
GMC PD 4106
Blue Thunder (1983)
PD-4104s don't have a destination sign that's horizontally long as the one above. This is a PD-4106. 2011-11-19 04:20
GMC PD 4104
That Thing You Do! (1996)
Mr. TDM 4512 is right about the bus in the main shot. One feature on the PD-4501s have rectangle clearance lights on the front center and above the destination sign. PD-4104s were built with round clearance lights. 2011-11-19 04:12
GMC PD 4104
Cannon (1971-1976)
This is not an MCI coach. It's a GMC PD-4104 based on the single set of headlights and the round clearance lights in the center. 2011-11-19 03:51
