I see its an Orion Bus. They used to have a TMC bus, numbered in the 514X series (X = Wild card number. .  Im thinking 6)

By chance, do you know what the former Ride-On stock number was of this bus?

ThankYou for sharing this with all of us.

5267??

Wow, a 25 year old bus.  I remember riding them from the Kids 'R Us on the 46 way back when.

Even back in the day, before the CNG/hybrid age, Gaithersburg and Silver Spring had different fleets.

[DCT S9Z4Z6]

Yeah on the different fleets.

In '89 Silver Spring Ride-On had 2 types of vehicles.
TMC "CityCruisers" (5100 - 5220) & Gillig "Phantoms" (5300-5356)
We/They (Silver Spring Ride-On) also had some refurbs 5400-5429, but they were refurb'd TMC's.

Gburg at the time ('89) had some TMC's And Orions (5221 thru 5299? Not sure of final bus number)

It was to 5297 for the 1984 Orion I's.

Attached is a pic I got from the stairwell of the EOB and it was 5267.

Very nice!  I like the paint scheme.  Also, you Orion I fans will be very happy about the news I have for what's coming up in January.

Contact me for details.
