Imagine my surprise when i first rode one of these Series 50 MC-12 buses it was bus #3047 back in 1999 that was my first MC 12 bus with Series 50 engine that i recorded before that i didn’t even imagine that there was any of these using any other engines than the 6V92TA.

Awsome! This sounds just like an Orion V mixed with an RTS!! I never knew that there was DD50 powered MC12s.

Great audio recording of the MC-12 bus! I’ve never ridden on the MC-12 bus that has the Detroit Diesel Series 50 engine.
