Vintage Public Service Bus Model #L627 (1957 GM Coach)


A few pictures of Public Service Coach #L627.  The bus was part of an order for 49 Model PD4104s built by GM and entered service in 1957.  These buses were purchased for long distance and shore services.  The 35 foot model has air conditioning, seats 41 with 183 hp.  The cruiser was the predecessor of the MC9s and Eagle buses.  It began service out of the Berlin garage and later serviced the Newton Ave., Maple Shade, Union City, New Brunswick, Perth Amboy and Elizabeth Garages.  The cruiser was retired in 1973 after 16 years of service.
