The front route sign on the 1000s | 7400s | 9000s had an operator accessed toggle switch which would rotate it up or down. ? Quote

Wait weren't those rollers? ?? I see what you did. I still remember cranking the sign at the children's museum. Cant remember the roll it had assigned though ? 1 Quote

Cant remember the roll it had assigned though ? Yep. What had confused me that it started with 1000s, but in a game I played with Twin Coach Flxibles, not "these" 1000s, but the Fishbowls. ? There is posted somewhere around here some "Frankenbuses" with flip dot signs, but they had Transdot controllers. Quote
andrethebusman99 Posted October 7, 2023 Report Posted October 7, 2023 Roller curtains up to 9800s/7100s. Electronic starting with 4000s. Hand cranked thru 3000 Flxs, motor driven starting with 3300s. Quote
andrethebusman99 Posted October 7, 2023 Report Posted October 7, 2023 5300-5544 had thumbwheel controllers, 5545-5769 had touchpads. I don't know enough about these to know who made which ones, I'm afraid, just that there were two different ones. Quote
