Posted by FYBklyn1959 on Sun Sep 27 17:49:45 2009, in response to 2009 LACMTA Bus Roadeo - Photos, posted by lbt 9415 on Sun Sep 27 11:15:54 2009. Great pics Eddie. I think for awhile, the MTA Roadeo bus was numbered 144. I used to see it at the CMF/RRC (and maybe at Division 2 when they were still using that yard for bus storage, before it became fully active at the June 1992 shakeup.) When it was 5090, it spent it's last days (at least from fall of 1976 on) at West Hollywood Division 7. It also had batwings for some of that time, dunno if they were removed before it retired. Also, don't know if it was one of the several pre-1967 buses kept in the reserve fleet after most of the older ones were retired in 1980 and 1981 with the arrival of a total of 1,170 Grumman Flxible 870s and GMC RTS-04s. The reserve buses ran through the 1984 Summer Olympics, then went away for good, along with some of the 1967 Flxibles (6100-6200s), which up until then were still revenue-active. |
