GREAT photo of a CLASSIC bus!!!!!!!!!!!! Wink

At the time of that photo, I am sure many "old timers" were lamenting the passing of the rattling, clattering old El trains........

Twin Donut. Another chain that's gone by the wayside.

But 4852 arrived prior to the abandonment of the last remaining portion of the Third Avenue el, so it wasn't necessarily direct in terms of replacement. The arrival of 4860-4919 onto the Kingsbridge depot, however, did allow for the retirement of the relatively young 1960 FACL and ST Fishbowls - after all, the last of the Old Looks were, for all practical purposes, put out to pasture by then.
