AM I CRAZY?

It must be some kind of bus fever that inflicts a certain amount of "Convertionists" (are we a new political party?)
I have not yet finished my first bus and found these in the next town, 15 miles away. They will be up for auction in the spring. Already have a bid in for the shorty. I have a little leg up on this, so it looks good that I will win the bid. We'll see

NICE. I like the Thomas Safe-T-Liner in front of it.

I like it...

A little bit longer than mine... My Genesis stops right behind the last window...

And yes, it is a disease...

Yes.

That is a nice bus though. I'd be real tempted myself under different circumstances.

I second that.

Re: AM I CRAZY?

So, are the Thomas buses really that much taller than the Genesis??? Do they have more head room??? It looks like the windows are tall as well...

I still like the loo of the Genesis better...
