I can also see Ralph Kramden driving this particular bus and picking up passengers wherever he goes!

@RTD8481

Is that the original engine? It sounds more like one from the Mid 1950's, the kind used on later model 5106's and 5105's.

So we can just picture Ralph Kramden going through his day driving down Madison Ave.
