The forward control Ford Transit bus was introduced in 1936 and in 1939 a new rear-engined version was announced. The 1939 was the first year for new Mercury division of the Ford Motor Corporation, and this car feautured a 95 h.p. V8 engine. The first Transit bus with one of the new engines installed transversely at the rear was built in February 1939. The serial production was started in October 1939 as 1940 model, called as '09-B' model ('0' for 1940 model year, '9' for 239-cubic inch V8 engine and 'B' for bus). The 27-seat bodies were supplied by the Union City Body Co. In the first year, Ford sold 571 Transits and until September 1947, almost 13,000 Trasnits were built for many operators in the United States and Canada. The Milwaukee Electric Railway & Transport Co. was one of the first customers for new Ford Transits (along with Detroit which ordered five hundreds in July 1939), placed an order for 24 buses in 1939. They were delivered in late 1939 and in 1940, numbered 746-749, 767-776 and 782-791 accordinly. In 1941 Milwaukee received ten additional buses of 19-B model (almost the same as '40 version) and in 1942-45 thirty-two improved Transit (models 29-B and 59-B) were delivered to the city.
