Name this LIRR Bus SPECIAL?

November 1976, LIRR SPECIAL #370 at curbside: 200-15 Linden Blvd., St. Albans, NY

Anyone know what the LIRR SPECIAL was?

The photo looks more like circa 1960 than 1976.

It might have been an introductory tour of the "Road and Rail" operations which were terminated fairly quickly, if I recall.

Thanks LB... The date really should be c.1960+ based on the 1960 Pontiac Catalina across the street in front of the late 50's Chevy.

The date I have for the first run is April 7, 1962 (see first day ticket sold in Jamaica that day). Brad Phillips
