Mid 1960's era CTA Flxible bus at the West 63rd Place and South Kedzie Avenue terminal loop. Chicago Illinois USA. July 1985.

Mid 1960's vintage CTA Flxible bus at West 63rd Place and South Kedzie Avenue terminal loop. Chicago Illinois. July 1985.

This is one of My all time personal favorite bus photos I had taken during the mid 1980's! I took this photo on a hot July afternoon, in 1985 on Chicago's southwest side. A classic 1960's era Chicago Transit Authority Flxible fishbowl windshield bus, is seen waiting to make it's northbound departure from the south terminal loop at West 63rd Place and South Kedzie Avenue. The 1960's era Flxible transit buses were rolling out their last miles in daily service, and would all be retired in 1986. Some went on to become maintenance work service buses for the CTA.
