    Beautiful old bus. Glad to hear it’s being restored. Such a classic looking vehicle that I’d love to take a trip in today!

    (continued) The Scenicruiser provided a fantastic ride through the villages of upper New York and the beautiful Adirondack Mountainsand I have lasting memories of an amazing trip. Thanks for posting this video and I think that it’s great that this old Greyhound is being restored.

    Thanks. It is stories like yours that motivate me to keep these things around. They have such great history that go with them.

    I was sixteen when I took my “ride of a lifetime” on an Eastern Greyhound Scenicruiser from Montreal to NYC. I didn’t ride upstairs but in the right front seat giving me a wonderful view of the road ahead. I-87 was only partially completed at that time (1959) and much of the trip north of Albany was on old US. (to be continued)

    Wow- I remember riding on one of the “super-scenicruisers” when i was like five years old (50 now) and I remember screaming for a seat in the “high part” – it was the ride of my life up to that point, I loved trains etc and this was a great ride to my cousings in indiana, and if I remember right it was a viciously cold winter and we had to transfer buses due to the trans not going into gear on our bus. I always loved trains, trucks, buses, etc. this is a real piece of Americana-!!!

    I would see these as a kid, always wanted to ride in one with those windows on top…never did…they were gone by the time I took a bus

    Excellent job! Nice to see someone willing to go to great effort to save one of these fantastic old buses. Is that a 4104 I see tucked in there? The 4104 is my all-time favorite GM highway bus. I have a GM Transit, a 1971 TDH-3301 “Baby Fishbowl”. I look forward to the day when you get 1001 running!
