Did any BoT route enter the PABT?

The answer is NO and YES

Here is a brand new BoT TDH-5101 testing its size in the ramps and platforms of the PABT

At the time this photo was taken PSNJ did not have 40 foot buses. They would not buy king size buses till a year later in 1952 with the TDM-5107 suburban model.

Correct you are!

Those BIG General Motors "suboibans", which would later dominate "Noo Joisey" suburban fleets, were still a few years into the future........
