41509-Daily Observations


Ventured to Silver Spring today as I usually do on Mondays and Wednesdays to kill time before I have to head to campus for classes. Spotted 6425 operating on the S9 this morning along East-West Highway turning onto 16th Street to head to the 16th & Eastern layover. On the Ride On side, 5727 has started belching out black smoke even though this bus has a DPF filter and a low emissions Cummins ISL engine. The hybrids have been belching out black smoke lately. Kinda ironic having a bus that is supposed to help reduce emissions backfire and smoke more than the older buses.
