I found the serial number of one I parted out a few years back. Scrapped for sure. PD4104-2944 was located in Petersburg, IL. (near Springfield)

Tom thanks,

The known scrapped buses are just as important as the ones still with us. Another number off the list.

I appreciate the credit but all I did was send you a list that someone else created around 2000 that I had buried in my computer.

Perhaps someone else will remember who that was.
