Also, if you look closely at the extreme left of the photo, you can barely see a rear exit door. The 4515's were all one-door buses. It's hard to tell but I'd say it's a TDH4509 or TDH4512.

Mr. TDM 4512 ◊ 2012-07-25 21:42	maxp is exactly on the money with his accurate description of FACCO # 2391. Of note is the fact that # 2391 is an early version of the 4509 series as evidenced by the width of the single passenger window just forward of the rear door. A later change in production in which the amid ships roof aluminum panels were replaced with steel after a discovery of a structural weakness in some of New York City's 500 TDH 4510's narrowed the width of that window to accommodate additional vertical supports placed immediately forward of both the emergency and rear doors.
