Looks like I found the body. www.historicpelham.com/images/BlogImages/Bus.jpg "The photograph immediately above, taken in 1927, shows a bus that the New York Athletic Club acquired to ferry club members between Travers Island and the Pelham Train Station on the New Haven Line." |

Could be a REO? www.nzetc.org/tm/scholarly/Gov01_08Rail-fig-Gov01_08Rail021b.html www.busesonline.com/aboutush.html -- Last edit: 2009-01-15 22:46:21 |

Good find. The body looks almost identical, even the wheels match... I'll make it REO unknown until the bus experts arrive. |

@antp, could you run a script to change all Reo entries to REO, please, as the name is capitalized? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/REO_Motor_Car_Company -- Last edit: 2013-01-14 17:08:37 |

"The company's name was spelled alternately in all capitals REO or with only an initial capital as Reo, and the company's own literature was inconsistent in this regard, with early advertising using all capitals and later advertising using the "Reo" capitalization.[2] The pronunciation, however, was as a single word. Lansing is home to the R. E. Olds Transportation Museum." |

Hmm, if the name is inconsistent rather forget about it. |

We could still decide to use only one of the two. Like for Mini where we decided to use "Mini" for the pre-BMW ones, and "MINI" for the new ones. |

That wasn't our idea, it was BMW's ... |
