Flxible Fageoliner

The Fageoliner, designated the FL, was a high-floor transit bus that carried the Fageol Twin Coach designation into the Flxible catalogue. In 1953 Flxible absorbed the bus-manufacturing side of the Fageol Twin Coach Company and accepted its first transit bus order, from the Chicago Transit Authority, and the Fageoliner was among the first models to be listed under the Flxible name. Flxible's model list gives it a short life, 1953 to 1954, before the FT Flxible Twin took over as the main transit bus. The Ohio Museum of Transportation makes the same point from the Twin Coach side: its Twin Coach production lists include FL coaches built before Flxible acquired the firm, and send readers to the Flxible lists for the FL buses built afterwards.
