Title: 4106 bus how many are left
Post by: siberyd on March 20, 2015, 02:48:32 PM
Ever since I was made an administrator for the 4106 Facebook group, that question keeps coming up. So since I got the 04's up to date, why not do the same with the 06's.  I will hold on to it til someone else wants it.

I know their at least 46 coaches out there. I have names and no serial number and the reverse.

Conversions -41
Seated -2
Scrapped - 3

There is one in my town (Warren Pa) has not left the garage for 10-20 years. They removed a 5' section from it and put it back together. Setting it up to pull a race car, Jakes and auto. I think it is still there, maybe I will stop and look. They would sell I think, but have a fair amount into it. Tom

I just found out yesterday that approximately 50 PD 4106's were purchased in the US and brought to Australia.  After their arrival to the land down-under,  they were converted to RH drive and moved entrance door to left side.

Many of these coaches have survived as bus conversions. I am waiting on a return of correspondence and photos.

The thread isn't really dead. Been working a lot of overtime and neglecting to add 06'a from other sources.

Where do you call home when not.on the road.
