Front view of 1982 Thomas

1982 Thomas Safe-T-Liner, Cat 3208 pusher, Allison MT643 transmisson. Oringally powered with a Cummins "Triple Nickel" 555 (called the VT-225) it was repowered about 8 years ago with the Cat (the hubometer reads about 58,000 miles; no confirmation yet but the suggestion is it was installed when the engine was).

The bus came from the Federal Way School District in Washington State and was purchased though the Washington State Surplus Sales program through eBay on November 6th, 2006.
