Unitrans 3536-4350

.

Upon unveiling on April 9, 1996, all 15 were driven in a single line from the Unitrans garage to the Memorial Union terminal, where a ribbon cutting ceremony was held. On their arrival at the MU Terminal, several GM buses left, a symbolic gesture to suggest "out with the old, in with the new." Among those in attendance was Congressman Vic Fazio who spoke and helped to cut the ribbon.
