Looking for help in finding the ROLL SIGNS for Chicago Motor Coach (c. 1950s) and for Kansas City Public Service motor coaches (around 1952-59).

Your help is much appreciated. Will be releasing another authentic round of our Transit Motor Coaches by Wheels of Time in N scale.

Thank you,
Point Man

Those are all CTA route numbers for former CMC routes; the 1 was added after CTA takeover from CMC. That rollsign appears to be from the mid-60s.

Mr. 'L',
So prior to CTA take over the bus roll signs are like what you've attached but without the "1" prefix. Is that correct?

Thank you,
Point Man

No; CMC had separate signs for the destination and the route.
