I shot some video of one of those in Chicago in the 50's.

Anybody else note the cover price 52 years ago, I wish my wages increased by that much. About 2 years ago, my wages were about 2.5% less than my first job in theater when I was 15.

I noticed the price also was only 35¢!

It was more than my wages at the time! But then again, I wasn't even born in 1955! :lol:

I have a stack of these that I haven't even went through yet. I'm not even sure what years they are from, but I'll definitely look to see if I have this issue.

Notice the train has oval windows, like the bus; further, that the bus and the train are in similar paint schemes. Is the bus anticipating being needed for a "bustitution" down the line?

Maybe that's why it's pacing the train! :lol:
