Yes, some did come back out of reserve, a few may have not yet been retired on 12/14/80 when the Grummans were sidelined, and just continued running. In the spring of 1981, I rode 2167, a 1954 TDH-4801 originally delivered to Metropolitan Coach Lines (which took over Pacific Electric bus (and rail) lines in 1953), and later ran for LAMTA and then RTD. That was the last Old Look bus I ever rode. The Old Looks were retired for good in the summer of 1981, when all 940 RTS-04s were in service and a good amount of the Grummans were back. Some RTD Old Looks went up to San Francisco, where Muni was having a motor coach shortage at that time. I don't know how long they ran there. |
