Seen here parked near the museum bus garage, is an old General Motors new look bus from the city of Milwaukee Wisconsin. These buses, and the buses from the Flxible Coach Company of Loudonville Ohio from the 1960's and 70's era were nicknamed "Fishbowls", due to their unique windshield designs. General Motors introduced this design in 1959 and produced them until 1983. These were a common sight on America's city streets during the 1960's through the 1980'sand 90's. Milwaukee Wisconsin retired theirs on June 8th 2000. I was on the "Last Run Fantrip".
