Where Are They Now?

Welcome to “Where are they now? The Buses We Used To Love!”

This is a work-in-progress page that seeks to collect as much information as we can about the buses that once were, but no longer are, part of the Pacific Bus Museum’s collection.

In some cases were have very scant information… merely a mention in an old Paddle article or a memory of a member. In either case, we are tying to collect even the smallest bits of information, in hopes that it will lead to unearthing more.

If you have any information on any of these, please let us know at info@pacbus.org.
