Love the GM 'old look' city transit bus...these were in most towns across North America and I used to ride them as a kid in Oshawa & Toronto..

I had the same flashback when I saw those buses. Both types were prevalent in the '60s and '70s in the SF East Bay, used by AC Transit. I rode them all the time! Fare was 10 cents when I was a kid and went up to 15 cents during my high school years '76-'80. I can still hear those deisels climbing the hill behind my house and the brakes howling on he way back down.
