Typical Steinway. Body work done, but not touched up with paint.

Nice photo tho. I don't remember these on local routes. I wonder what happened to them? Unless they were repainted and renumbered when they got older and actually put on local routes.

According to the April-June 2007 edition of Motor Coach Age, #6 was one of 6 GMDD T8H-5307A buses. They were assigned fleet #'s 3-8. No information about the disposition of any of them.

Numbers 3-8 were the buses that Steinway rec'd that were intended for another agency, hence the different paint scheme. Numbers 9-23 were rec'd a bit later in '81/'82.

They had some of the 8 cyl 102 inch Canadian fishbowls also. I used to take the Jewel Ave Express pretty often. And yes, the 8 cyl buses could move!

You want to know why, this will be a long post so bear with me and will likely be my last post.

The webmaster stopped giving a damn about this place years ago and its painfully obvious.

Posts about buses turn into a flame wars, where people question whether something is right or wrong.

I see members who should be responsible act like little kids fighting over toys. It's ridiculous and immature. What happened to not responding?

That reasoning, along with a large variety of stupid fans in this community, especially from New York City Transit Forums (there are some on that site that have their heads on their shoulders), which is run by a bunch of coons babysitting a bunch of retarded simps.

This is why this hobby is a joke. I've distanced myself away from transit groups and sites because of how bad it's turned out.

Many members on this site are gone because of some Jewish asshole that's on every member's dick over stupid stuff.

All of the proof of that is in the reef section of this site or if you google it. It's all in Subchat's history.

I really don't care if I get hated on by the entire community for saying this.

I'd rather be hated for my honest opinion, then to start kissing other people's asses like Daniel Smith has done whether he's on NYCTF or Transit Photos & Videos on Facebook.

I've been in this community for not even a decade and I've seen more crazier things then any other community out there.

Getting back to this site, it gets taken over by some unibrow Jew, who derails topics in a attempt to gain the satisfaction of being correct no matter what, even if he is wrong.

If Brian Weinberg responds to this here is what I've got to say to him, I don't care if you call me Anti-Semite.

Quite frankly I hate all religions and think they are all phony. You can take your Jewish religion and everything it stands for and shove up your anal cavity, where it belongs.

My best suggestion fishbowls4ever is to leave Subchat and not come back, because nothing new is going on here. A thread from August is somehow still active, but filled with back and forth nonsense.

Making a post about when there use to be decent discussions on this site isn't fixing the problem. Sorry to say this, but it's true.

You're better off making a transit group on Facebook and inviting people who actually want to discuss transit seriously and not get flamed or hated on. That's all I have to say.

Does the bus say "AM General" above the front bumper? If the answer is there, why does it need to be questioned?

I have a penchant of answering a question with a question. Especially when it is a dumb question.
