Ottawa-Carleton Regional Transit Commission 9126-9150

OC Transpo 9126-9150 were Orion 05.501 buses built and delivered in 1991.

They featured padded vinyl seats (Otaco), tip-in windows, A/C and Pylon destination rollsigns originally. A/C was disconnected as a cost savings measure. All had been retrofitted with Luminator Mega:MAX 3000 destination signs. The rear destination sign was placed in the rear curbside passenger window due to the lack of having a rear window.

This batch of Orion Vs along with 9231-9258 suffered premature corrosion issues and were gradually retired starting in 2005. The last one to be retired was 9126 (as of December 2006, only unit surviving) in May 2007.

All of these buses received full rebuilds, however 9137, 9142, 9144, 9145, and 9147 were repainted in the old red stripe scheme because they were rebuilt before the Maple Leaf livery was officially introduced in September 1999 (at an Ottawa OC Transpo Council meeting).
