For the Holidays the MTA pulls out these vintage Buses on the M42, 5227 was the very last non-wheelchair bus in regular service, it retired in June of 1995

Cool buses. The MTA buses from 2000 and before are the best.

I'll include 2001-2005 as well.

Probably an AC unit. Busses like this were rebuilt in the 1980s. Most likely the original didn't have an AC and they just put one in there when they rebuilt these busses
