Former Northwest College, Powell, Wyoming. 6V92 Detroit Diesel with Allison HT-740 automatic. All original and everything works, including AC for both passenger and driver compartments.
I'm keeping it as a passenger bus. Hoping to get it into some filming jobs. I'm also considering selling it, however I haven't gotten there quite yet. ;-)
Hi Chris, I need to know what transportation company did you use to have your bus shipped to you? I'm in the process of having a bus shipped to me. Thanks. By the way, nice bus. Dwayne.
I've believe it was a ex trailways bus before greyhound purchase trailways in 1987 thirty years ago because they were known as the red and white buses back then but prove me wrong
It's ex-GSA, purchased by the US Government for a school district on an Indian reservation, then sold to a youth activities center, then to Northwest College in Powell, Wyoming, where I purchased it from. This bus was never in revenue service.
Additionally, to Calvin, a LOT of Eagles had Trailways style stripe paintjob regardless the original owner. But none of the Trailways carriers has this exact design anyway. Also Trailways never had the restroom scoop, or some of the options this bus had (except very few carriers, in their VIP busses) Last but not least, there is a build plaque, and it will say "Built for Trailways Corporation".
My favorite part of the bus the drivers seat or captains chair 👍😎
Great looking bus! Can you please do a video of it driving? I want to hear that Allison HT740 shifting through the gears!
lol me two , love this engine and tyranny combo , the rough shift of the Allison 740 was everything

Beautiful bus! Have you started converting it? Or are you just keeping it as a passenger bus?

How does it drive on the road? Nice bus too.
