Great shots! I remember las year when I intermittently fanned the B62 (then still a part of the unified B61) and every so often I would see one of these buses go by. Apparently Private Transportation Corporation operates these routes as a service to the Chasidim (Orthodox Jewish) communities in Williamsburg and Borough Park (hence the odd Friday schedule). I like the new fleet they added; at last we don't have to go out to Suffolk to go Gillig-hunting. It's too bad for the Orion Is that apparently got replaced, though. By the way, if anyone has a schedule departing Williamsburg or a list of stop locations I'd really appreciate it if you posted it here.
