This really doesn’t have anything to do with buses….. or does it? Everything happened yesterday evening. my computer crashes, the shelf in the pantry crashed and someone stepped on Marilyn’s glasses. What I did lose was most of my bus stuff that I didn’t have blogged, which irritates me. That’s why I [...]

So it has really been bothering me that I see some ‘63 buses with a small rear window and some with the large rear window. It seems that some time during the year, maybe in August, the ’64’s came out. One of the changes was the rear window. These buses were still registered as a [...]
