"On Time Oliver" drives an ACF-Brill IC-41 for Great Western Trailways in Dallas, Texas, These IC-41s had manual steering, A 4 or 5 speed manual transmission, Air brakes, Air conditioning, some had restrooms while others did not, And were powered by center mounted, underfloor Hall-Scott gasoline engines, Although in the last 2 years of production 1952 & '53, Cummins diesel engines became optional.
