Yutong U18BRT at Norway 🇳🇴

Noong nag uumpisa palang ako mag hop or spotting sa Cubao noong 2018/2019, mapalad akong nakapitik sa Cubao nitong mga MAN 16.290 ng BTI in Almazora body, actually halos "endangered" or pawala na rin sila that time, retired na nga yung kay GBT at tanging 16.290 na lang ng BTI ang tumatakbo nung time na yan.

Hindi lang basta nakapitik kundi nasakyan din natin sila bago pa i-retire, I remember madalas MAN ang natatapat sa biyaheng Papaya na pang hapon sa Cubao either kina 9921, 9924, or 9930. Actually nasakyan natin sila both nung time na yan.

Naalala ko nung may kasama akong mag spotting noon sa Cubao, nung nakita niyang MAN ang nakapila pauwi ng Papaya pinapauwi na niya ako 😂, sakyan ko na raw since alam namin na pawala na nga mga MAN ng Baliwag noon. And ginawa ko naman yung sinabi niya na yun. For me, iba pa rin kapag nasakyan mo yung luma kaysa sa bago, lalo kapag pawala na. Bakit? Kasi you're paying tribute to them as a bus enthusiast, "last hurray (or hurrah)" sa madaling sabi. Eh lalo't ito pa naman ang mga huling MAN ng Baliwag at hindi na nasundan pa kaya sinakyan ko na talaga. Yung mga bago, nandyan lang yan, matagal pa silang magseserbisyo sa mga pasahero.

Actually nakita ko pa itong MAN nila noong 2020 at inabutan na sila ng pandemic, supposedly sila dapat ang papalitan ng mga 20xx series na Hino, pero dahil naabutan nga ng pandemic ay nadelay ang paglabas ng mga 20 series.

MANday, Monday / another Throwback

Before R39, RR3, and RR2 in VLI's fleet, there is 16.290. Balik tayo sa panahong wala pang Regio, Del Monte DM Series, at Truckquip. Eto muna ang pinakasikat noon sa VLI, ang MAN 16.290. Isa itong Almazora Tourist Star body by Almazora Motors Corporation. But when I did a research sa Flickr eh dati palang Flexstar by Santarosa Motor Works ang body nito, so meaning nirebody pala ito sa Almazora. Sa pagkakatanda ko ay dalawa o tatlo lang ata yung Tourist Star na naka-Universe headlight sa fleet ng VLI noon.

Kung naalala niyo yung post ko about Lakan Coach Lines, sinabi ko sa caption na mostly second hand ang units ng Lakan. Actually itong si 1641 ay napunta sa Lakan noong nagretiro na ito sa fleet ng VLI.

Ito yung time na dumadaan pa yung CVL nila sa Bulacan. Seems familiar yung location? Napitikan ko yan noon sa tapat ng Rocka Complex sa Plaridel, Bulacan noong 2014.

Apologies for the low quality since 2mp palang ang gamit ko dati.

Two big names in transportation industry, parehas may "Philippine" sa pangalan, parehas ding matagal na sa industriya. Yung isa ay nawala na at napunta na sa iba't-ibang kumpanya yung mga prangkisa, samantala yung isa pa ay patuloy pa ring nagseserbisyo sa mga pasahero sa North & Central Luzon.

Parehas ding gawa ng Santarosa yung mga nasa pic. 😁

Downhill from the Summer Capital

Wayback 9 years ago yung kuha ko dito, fresh pa that time itong BH117 ni VLI. Ito yung puro BH117 at MAN R39 ang flagship nila nung panahon na yan at wala pang Royal Class at Chairman's Class.
