The irony was that ex-NYCO (and at the point of the strike, FACL) 2969 - inside and around which Jackie Gleason and his "Honeymooners" cast posed for publicity photos in 1955 - was among the fleet which would be seized by the city and placed under MaBSTOA aegis; by fall 1965 it was listed as being in the same depot, at 100th Street on the upper East Side, where it had begun its long service life when it and 74 other buses in the same order (TDH-4509's numbered 2947 through 3021) were delivered by GM to NYCO in late 1950. Most of its life was spent traversing the route #18 86th Street crosstown (today's M86+SBS). #1/#2, in NYCO days, was assigned out of that same depot. |
