ZF Transmissions on Flxibles and Other Buses...

[TransitGuru1981X]

Hi,

In regards to the ZF transmissions that were specified on MTA Maryland's 1993 and 1994 Flxible Metro "D" buses (#9301-9304, 9401-9425 and 9431-9435), was there an overdriven 5th gear? The transmission control panel would be similar to a Voith DIWA unit: the 4-speed direct-drive ZFs would have R-N-D-3-2-1 while the 5-speed overdrive ZFs would have R-N-D-4-3-2-1. Correct?
