Blue Bird 1036 added 03/11/24.
BLUE BIRD 1024:
Here's Blue Bird 1024 looking rather beat up as it lays over at the 21 Fontainebleau terminal at S. Claiborne
and S. Carrollton in February 1996. The 21 route was discontinued by 2001; it was a replacement for the
Lowerline branch of the Broad Street route which was in turn cut back to Washington Avenue. The 24 Napoleon
took over the Fontainebleau route, but only to Lowerline. Thumbnail images updated 10/11/17.
