This past Saturday was Hamilton, OH's annual Antique & Classic Car Parade, and some guys from the Cincinnati Transit Historical Association (CTHA) and the Transit Authority of Northern Kentucky (TANK) brought up some classic transit buses. I became good friends with them (and am joining CTHA) and got some shots of the machinery:

Great stuff!!! i'll be sure to post some old brill buses soon.



I used to be with it, but then they changed what it was. Now what I'm with isn't it, and what's it seems weird and scary to me, and it'll happen to you, too!
