    Thanks for that. I was close with FP’s order. As for Quill, it was formerly known as Westside: a combination of the old AM & OH buses that at that time had: M10, M11, M16/34, M23, M42, M27/50, M30/72, M79, M86, M96/106, M98 & M102. The M20 came later 

    its roster had: 4113-4166 (AM & OH)

    4508-4553 (OH)

    8201-8229 (OH/HP)

    8600-8670 (OH/AM)

    4834-4853 (HP) 

    the artics & the 5000 series Buses came a year later. 

    1986 GM-RTS 4508-4553 were delivered to 126 St. (the only TA depot in Manhattan). I remember them on the M-15 & M-15 Limited.

    I remember that 4567 (JAM) had Chicago-style windows.

    Yeah, I know. That bus was kept around for driver training, which is when it was renumbered to 1000 from 1004. But the real 1000 was a 1996 unit along with 1001, and saving the 1997 1004 and faking it as a pilot bus for the museum fleet didn't make sense to me. The real 1000 and 1001 were the only 1996 buses in the order and had the older trannys to match. Guess it doesn't matter now though. 

    1000 was a 1997 unit which was delivered after 1069 was. The numbering for that series was originally supposed to be 1001-1070. When they changed the numbering to 1000-1069, 1000 was delivered (it was originally going to be numbered 1070).
