Although the 120 Fishbowls ordered by FACL, as such:
1 - 10 (A/C buses) - 1960
3101-3110 (first non-A/C buses) - 1960
3111-3160 (second batch) - 1960
3161-3210 (branded as Surface Transit Inc.) - 1960
were not part of this list, though they'd long been retired (since 1973). All were rebranded MaBSTOA upon the 1962 takeover.

The big question, though, is this: At what point in 1966 would 1950-built 4509 bus #2969 - the true Jackie Gleason bus - would've been retired and put to scrap, given its absence from the Jan. 1, 1967 list?
