Hi All, been trying to research some bus VINs on MCI 8 & 9s, anglefire is good for a lot of it, but cant seem to find TMC bus numbers. They mention it with notations, but don't list them. Can anyone direct me to an actual serial number listing of the TMC buses?  Thanks, tom, lvmci...

Tom don't know if it will help you but a lot of the TMC were built in Roswell NM not South Dakota or Canada.

I think all the TMC were built in New Mexico started in 1974 by Greyhound all the RTS were built there and someone is still building buses there the last time we were there

Yes Clifford, Nova buses come to mind, thanks Dave, yes all TMCs were from roswell, I think their bus serial numbers start with "T", but not sure, tom...

Seems to me that i was told or read that they had a fire and a lot of the records were lost so there are gaps in the lists. My bus is one of the missing even though the bus before mine and the bus after mine are listed.
Used to own a 1968 MCI 5A and a 1977 5C.

Ours was in a couple of groups of numbers of the 200 shipped overseas and just says where and that's it. The plate in the Bus said it was made in USA Pembina N. Dakota Sept. 1979
