Correction! Wrong date accidently submitted for the Milwaukee CountyTransit Disctrict last run GMC fishbowl windshield bus excursion of2000.

Sorry.

In recent "Bus Day Edition" postings of Eddie's Railfan Page, the photos for the Milwaukee County Transit Districts last run GMC fishbowl windshield bus charter, the date of the fantrip charter was originally listed as Saturday, June 8th, 2000.

Due to the recent finding of a flyer from that fantrip, the actual date was Sunday, July 8th, 2000. I had also listed that the trip was sponsored by the Milwaukee County Transit District and the Chicago Chapter of the Omnibus Society of America.

The trip was actually sponsored by the Milwaukee County Transit Disctrict, and the Illinois Railway Museum in Union Illinois www.irm.org

One of the former Milwaukee GMC fishbowl windshield buses, is now in the collection at The Illinois Railway Museum.

Sorry for the errors.

Thanks.
Eddie K.

This bus is unfortunately being scrapped, to make room for three newly acquired Chicago Coaches.
