These two Long Island 870's indeed displayed large, easy-to-read fonts on their roller curtains.....

Actually, that was 32nd and 5th. The bus is headed eastbound towards Madison Avenue. 31st Street is westbound. |

.....I take it that #631 was the only 870 equipped with "batwings".
Were there ever plans to eventually install batwings on the other 870's, then in the fleet?
