611 and 1218 - on the road again!

Posted by feltonhill on Wednesday, September 5, 2007 6:17 AM

611 and 1218 were moved from VMT to the East End Shops last night, so they were really "on the road" if only for a few blocks through Roanoke. Photos of 611 were posted on a discussion board this AM. Looked just like old times!

What is intended to be done at these shops? Could we hope of something?
