It is also interesting that,in the late 1960s, the "Tee-Yay" sold several "Ktamdens" tp Jersey City-based "LAFAYETTE & GREENVIKLLE".

Being still quite young for an Old Look, I still think of either "L&G" and NHBL picking up a few of the distinctive 5106 from t he MTA.

These buses still had a number of good years left in them.....................

W.B.:

THAT would have been interesting, indeed! Very Happy

Awhile ago, I'd mentioned that I thought odd that the "Tee-Yay"never rostered 4512s, especially that they they were quite popular with many companies across the country, at the time.............

Interesting that Green Bus Lines was the only one to order the TDH-4512. They had 15 that came in 1954. They already had TDH-5104 and would not receive the TDH-5106 till March 1959.

Green also had TD-4506, TDH-4507, and TDH-4509.

Bee Line in Nassau County was the only other operator in the NYC area that had the TDH-4512.
