It may have held things together until the Gilligs from Suffolk County and subsidies started moving in. The number 111 seems also to be a skip in sequence numbers, unless they bought some Prevosts in the interim.I remember Blue Bird Coach in western NY. In 1978, I saw a 35' Fishbowl transit bus sitting in the Erie, PA Greyhound terminal that was to depart as the daily US6 local to Scranton around 11am. By the time of Pennsylvania intercity bus deregulation abound 1982 - 83, the route was gone. They probably has some othrrs to hold down Olean area locals.
