The guy in the picture appears to put a tarp on #1447 from my eyes, we are slowly rounding the corner of the #1000s retirement. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're best bet would be trying to get #6163, the fresh moves bus aka #6127,#6227 or even the #4900s. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
