   Hey guys,

   Out driving today I spotted what look like a 4106 in a barn. Stopped in and ask if it was for sale and he said yes, needed some

   motor work.  I took some pictures with my I-phone and would be glad to post if I knew how to send them to the site.  For

  those who can find the history of it , here it is.   4106-1567.  The condition is really good and it still has the OTR-AC.  From

what the owner told me it was a campain bus for one of the presidents in its day. Original restroom , galley with a phone in the

back, several seats and a bed on the side.

Steve -

PD4106-1567 was delivered new in March of 1963 as fleet number CP-818 To Capitol Bus Company (a Trailways affiliate), based in Harrisburg, PA.

Always cool to find something interesting in a barn!

Is this still in the PA area?

FWIW & HTH. . .

OTR AC is great if you are going to restore the bus. Mine still had it when I bought mine as a conversion, not anymore. $$$$$$$

RJ,

My 4104-1274 was also once both a Capitol and a Capital bus even though it started out as a Tamiami Trails one.

I can still see the outline of the Capital/Capitol signs on the right side and front.
