Welcome to the Toronto Transit Commission photo gallery. Toronto Transit Commission (TTC) has 4 seperate series of Orion 05.501 buses.

-The first series were built in 1991-1992, consisting of 106 buses (#6640-6745). They are powered by Detroit Diesel 6V92TA engines and Allison B400R5 transmissions (originally ZF 5HP500).

Upon termination of CNG operations at the TTC in 2005, all of these buses were retired.

-The third series was built and delivered in 1996, consisting of 135 buses (#7000-7134), powered by Detroit Diesel Series 50 egnines and Allison B400R5 transmissions. These buses also have wheelchair lifts.

The foruth series was also built and delivered in 1996 setup to run Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) using a Cummins L10G engine coupled to an Allison Allison B400R5 transmission. Upon the termination of the CNG program in 2005 a program to retrofit these buses to run on diesel fuel was already under way. They have been retrofitted with Cummins M11 engines.
