Unitrans 4514-4515

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Unitrans 4514 & 4515 were two General Motors New Look buses operated in regular service by Unitrans in Davis, California. They had been owned by a previous operator(s) prior to their service with Unitrans.

They were both painted in the standard Unitrans paint scheme of the 1980s (a white lower-half and a black upper-half, with red and blue stripes running just below the point where the upper and lower halves meet). Having been sold, they are no longer part of the Unitrans fleet.
