Nice pics!  But how come they're all sitting in a parking lot and not out pounding the pavement generating $$$$?   

Quick question:  IIRC, the new 417 has a flat floor inside, while the older 217 has a dropped center aisle.  Is that right?

RJ,
They were generating revenue! That picture is in a hotel parking lot before start up on a 4 day tour 3 bus loads! $$$$$$$
and yes the 417 is a flat floor while the 215 & 217s had the drop aisles!   BK 

By the way that photo was tak'n the week all this madness started! The S417 in the picture is the one I borrowed and was told, drive it, like it, love it, keep it, take over the payments! The rest is history now!

Here's a Setra that's missing from your fleet:

Jeremy you are correct! But since a "class A bus" is illegal in KY and we are less than a mile from KY and normally run in & through KY we have decided to stay away from ANY articulated coaches! For a long time I tried convining dad that the H5-60's would make a nice bus for our fleet! All he would say is "son if you want a toy hauler you'll have to save up and buy it, but the company is not going to buy it for you!"
